Isaiah 1: 16-18

I was reflecting on this passage in Isaiah and what a call to conversion it is!

Wash yourselves clean!
Put away your misdeeds!
Make justice your aim
Redress the wronged
Hear the orphan's plea
Defend the widow
Set things right

Then, scripture tells us:

You may become white as wool

If we spend some time on these words, we can hear God's call for us to change and we should be able to truly celebrate the possibility for conversion that comes through the power of God.

Whatever your sins, whatever evil you may have done up to this point today, the possibility that you can change your ways, be forgiven by God, is great. He tells us what we must do: take care of those who plead for help. Bring justice to those who have none. Quite simply, just set things right.

We can all do our part. Seek to convert from your old ways and God will reward you greatly.

God bless,
Janet
