Lord, You Are Holy

 “And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way.  The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it.”  Isaiah 35:8

Lord, You are Holy.

Forgive me, Lord, each moment for the unholy thoughts I keep; each day for the unholy actions I perform; each year for the unholy life I lead.  In your mercy and forgiveness lead me to holiness that I may stand before You, sorrowful, repentant, and forgiven.

Thank you, Lord, for your devoted Saints and their inspiring examples of true holiness to guide me.

     We must face our unholiness in order to reach holiness.  We must know where we fail before we can succeed.  God will lead us to holiness by example.  He sends us His Son (The Living Word) to lead the way, and the Bible (His written Word) to explain the way, and then He gives us earthly people with heavenly attributes for us to imitate.

     Sometimes we would rather sin; it is easier.  It is easier, but costlier in the long run.  So we must each face our unholiness and strive to be holy minute by minute, hour by hour, and day by day.  He calls us each to holiness.
