How to respond when we fall short.
Whenever he fell short in his duty, he would simply admit his mistake to God, saying, "I will never do better if You leave me to my own devices; You are the one who must prevent me from failing and fix what's wrong." After this, he wouldn't worry about it any further.
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus, because the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.
When have I fallen short recently?
What difference does it make to my relationship with God that no condemnation exists?
