God’s Open Heart

Bette Ford

Quote:”Our actions, however good, right or true, contribute nothing to our place in God’s heart.  Neither does our lack of such actions….It’s not that acts of love, mercy, and justice are bad. They are, indeed, the very acts toward which we are called. They simply do not have the power to make or break our relationship with God, any more than our deepest brokenness can cast us out of God’s care. All, in Christ, are within the great redemptive scope of God’s love.”

From: Christ In Our Home, Augsburg Fortress Pub., Vol 65#3, Read:9-5,(Romans 2:1-11).

Romans 2:11 “For God shows no partiality”.
