Judgment, Mercy, or Both

There is an awareness that can come upon one who is waiting on God.  As you wait, you should become increasingly aware of God's holiness and increasingly aware of your sin.  Murray points out in day 19 of his devotional that God is both the God of mercy and the God of judgment.

So if awareness of God's holiness leads us to see our sin, then this awareness should lead us to a greater understanding of God's salvation.  Truly God is good, because of His great love He is able to save someone as sinful as me!  I hope you too have come to the same understanding - That a perfectly holy God loves you and has provided a way, Jesus, to pay for your sin.

-Mark
