Wednesday, January 2nd: Genesis 3:1-4:26, Matthew 2:13-3:6, Psalm 2:1-2:12, Proverbs 1:7-1:9 ~ Tammy

Today's passage from the Bible In a Year Reading Plan is Genesis 3:1-4:26, Matthew 2:13-3:6, Psalm 2:1-2:12, Proverbs 1:7-1:9

It is always heartbreaking to read about the Fall.  What was once perfect relationship with God, turned into rebellion and brokenness. 

And it sure didn't take long for sin to flourish with the very first child born on earth murdering his brother. 

Thankfully, Jesus came to earth, born to die, the only man to ever live a sinless life.  His death covers our sin and our shame, and He offers us grace and mercy.  May we grab hold of that offer and allow our sin and shame to be washed by His blood.
