Let me say first that I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith in him is being talked about all over the world.
You are so proud of knowing the law, but you dishonor God by breaking it.
And a person with a changed heart seeks praise2:29 Or receives praise. from God, not from people.
So we are made right with God through faith and not by obeying the law.
Lord God my Father,
To know you is life, help me to know you more and follow you without distraction. Keep me in your shadow and help me to find all my worth in you not this world so I may only have your will to direct my thoughts and actions.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
