B Encouraged: Standing in the Wholeness that the Cross Speaks Over My Life (2-9-22)

Reading Psalm 51 in light of the love, sacrifice and forgiveness of the cross. We are forgiven. We are clean. The cross has brought Christ' love and life to cover our impasse and death. In the midst of depression and tragedy, we can rest in the work of the cross. That which would say 'defeat' is wrong. For Christ is saying, 'Life' and as Author and Perfector, His is the voice to which we lean and in whom we find the triumph of rest amidst lies and accusations and, even, actual failure itself.
