I am often asked where I find my inspiration for sermons - this is one place. I believe God speaks to me daily and this is a place where you can look over my shoulder as I write some notes to myself as we journey towards Sunday . . .

Day 342 a note from God: Ephesians
In Christ we have bold and confident access to God through faith in him.
Ephesians 3:12 CEB
I think that perhaps we have lost all concept of what it means to be holy.
We throw the word around a lot with out truly understanding its meaning.
God is Holy. Actually, scripture says of God, He is Holy, Holy, Holy.
That is meant to create an image of total perfection.
God is perfect and as such nothing (absolutely NOTHING) with flaw or imperfection may enter God's presence.
How then is humankind to ever gain audience with God with all of our flaws?
No matter how hard we try we cannot obtain perfection.
Enter Christ.
In Christ we have bold and confident access to God through faith in Him.
By faith we are made able to access God.
By faith we are granted holiness.
Think about that the next time someone deems something holy!
