Scripture: "They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”" John 8:6-7 NIV Application: God gives us opportunities to stop being hateful to others and to turn around. His invitations to show mercy come softly and privately at first, just as Jesus wrote convicting things on the ground. But if we keep hard hearts, Jesus will come with harder correction. The time to repent is immediately after conviction. Prayer: When You first send us messages of conviction, dear Lord, we pray that we will repent, forgive, and change our hearts and behavior. Amen.
