God sent his son to save mankind from righteous wrath.
We are prone to miss the great things God is doing. This could be that we have little faith or maybe it doesn’t look like what we expected.

There are people in my life I have substantial influence with. I need to steward that well.
Father, help my own self promoting passions to whither and my passion for you to thrive for your glory. Thank you for completely paying for the wrath I earned.
