Romans 8:1-11, Ps.24, Luke 13:1-9

Be individual

Sin distances me from God’s love. There is an equality of sinners in this reading. The command to all sinners is to repent. A repentant heart is a holy heart which attracts God’s compassion. This is not a perfect heart but a soft heart. I must look after my soft heart, tilling the soil of life so that sooner, rather than later, my life will bear fruit. Holiness brings out my individuality.
