​Romans 8:1-2
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

Pig Pen is my soul mate. Yes, Pig Pen of Peanuts fame. We don't know as much about Pig Pen as we do of Charlie Brown, Lucy, Snoopy & Linus. What we know of Pig Pen's character is that he was always a mess. His clothes, his face and his hands were always disheveled and dirty. He had his own personal cloud of dust that kept him perpetually in a state of messiness. And yet, he walked and played and thrived in the Peanuts gang seemingly without being impeded from the fullness of life by his self-generated mess. It is a way of life that I have accepted as sinner and saint, as one condemned and one redeemed. I am a messy Pig Pen of a person at war sometimes with the world and almost always with herself and yet, thanks be to God, I walk and play and thrive among God's people with a joy unexplainable and a passion for Jesus who sets us free.

God of Grace, forgive my mess. What shall we do together today? Amen.
