40 days with Mark and Jesus (16)

Mark 7:1-23

It is easy to clean the outside and leave dirt on the inside. We are so good at appearing clean as we go about our religious duties. All the evil that is sin does not come to us and stick upon us from the outside but rises up from inside us. The human heart is the heart of our human problems.

Prayer: Almighty Father, not only have we wandered from your path of discipleship we run in our own ways further from you as our sin comes from the inside out. Have mercy upon us, forgive us our sin according to your promises in Christ Jesus our Saviour.
