[Caleb Kiser]

This devotion points out a trap that is easy to fall into in our modern age. It is easy for us to get busy, to not take time, or to ignore the relationship that God has called us into. We, as Christians, are called to be in community and relationship with the Father. Sometimes, we get caught up in the religious aspect of Christianity. God would much prefer us to be caught up in the relationship aspect of following Jesus. It’s also easy for us to say we hate sin, but do we really? The battle with sin is a daily thing. That’s why Paul said we must die to ourselves daily. And when we do fall into sin, grace and truth must be present. We must walk and talk in grace and truth. There is not one without the other. We must make sure that our hearts are in the right place.
