What if you don’t have to fix yourself before coming to God?  
Zechariah 3 gives us a beautiful picture of grace for anyone who has ever felt they were simply not good enough.

Joshua stands before God wearing filthy clothes. Yet God does not tell him to clean himself up. God removes what stains him and gives him clean clothes instead.

In this 5-minute Christian devotional, we explore what that means for us today. God’s grace welcomes us as we are, but it also begins to reshape the way we live. We do not become compassionate, patient or forgiving to earn God’s love. We learn to live differently because his love has already been given.

Where might God’s grace change the way you respond to someone today?

*Subscribe for a new 5-minute daily devotional each day as we explore Scripture together and discover how faith speaks into ordinary life.*

Where do you most need God’s grace to change the way you respond to someone today?

You don’t need to name the person. But if you’re comfortable, share the situation or the grace you’re asking God for — perhaps patience, compassion, forgiveness, honesty or humility.

I’d love for us to encourage one another in the comments.
