WORDs of Saving Grace - our creator is reasonable
Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
Have you ever dealt with someone who is unreasonable? In other words no matter what you do or say - you are wrong or stupid? This does not show love, compassion or grace by any means (Proverbs 26:21).
But our LORD and creator is most reasonable not by means of negotiation or convincing arguments, but by the reconciliation of His cross (Colossians 1:20, Ephesians 2:16).
It is men who make God seem to be unreasonable by binding heavy burdens upon others that the Lord never intended (Matthew 23:4). When He clearly says His yoke is fitting and not cumbersome (Matthew 11:30).
Listen to His sincere voice of reason as He compels us to come to Him.
Matthew 11:28-29
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
