Do It Yourself


There are some things in life that you have to do yourself. This was the certainly the case with the giving of the Law. God considered the Ten Commandments to be so important, He didn't trust anyone else to write them. He came down to earth himself and inscribed the Law Himself with His finger. When the Law demanded death for the woman caught in the act of adultery, He once again wrote with His finger. Perhaps this time He wrote the Ten Commandments, but this time it was in sand rather than in stone, showing us that because of the cross, sin could now be washed away by the sea of God's mercy and forgetfulness. The cross of Calvary made room for the mercy of God for the whole human race, and that mercy is still available today. There goes another minute. Gone forever. Go share your faith while you still have time.
