Man, I've just been thinking about how my life seems to be all screwed up. I wondered if I could be any good to God or if corrupted myself beyond repair. But then it was like, well God already knew these mistakes I'd make before I made them and yet he still keeps me around for one and two there are things in my life God has opened up for me to be of service to him (aka going to camp this summer for free) so apparently God still has a use for me. And I think part of my problem is I get caught up in what my flesh is like, and of course it's wicked beyond my knowledge but what I often don't consider is that I have Christ's righteousness imputed to my account. Even as Abraham believed God and it was counted to for righteousness. (Romans 4) So really I ought to be depending on God and when sins do arise in my life confess them and know "that if we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse from all unrighteousness." (1John 1:9)
