DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 25; Psalm 139; Mark 10:1-31
Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of
unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips:
for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. Isaiah 6:5
The study of the depravity of man can be an interesting Biblical
study. One can study the various theological theories with a detached,
intellectual interest. It is quite another matt er to stand naked
in the sight of a holy God with your selfi sh, evil heart laid bare. Isaiah
stood there, crushed with guilt. Only the Lord with His matchless
grace can forgive and cleanse the sinner. —Donald Norbie
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see. —John Newton
