Meditation on God's Judgment
Paul Tripp recently posted a poem where he meditates on God's judgment of sin and unrighteousness. It's a reflection particularly on Psalm 73. Here's how it starts:
Great stuff to help us remember the gospel in the face of our sins.
To transgressing of your boundariesThis is the basic structure, and it concludes like this:
You will put an end.
To human thoughts of autonomy
You will put an end.
To delusions of self-sufficiency
You will put an end.
Grace forbids these going on forever.
Grace has drawn me near to you.
Grace has paid for my unfaithfulness.
Grace has made me clean in Your eyes.
Grace put my stripes on Jesus
so I would not face them
when you put what is now
to an end.
Great stuff to help us remember the gospel in the face of our sins.
