Bible Snack #11

​My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous (1 John 2:1).
 
My Catholic friends go to confession once a week. I don’t know how they can do it. I have to go every day! Negative thoughts build forts in my mind and I say stupid words every day of my life. Then there are times I simply don’t do what the Lord asks of me just because I don’t want to. Thank goodness Jesus is my Lawyer. He goes before the Judge of the Universe with His shame-faced client and says, “Your Honor, Dad, Marty is guilty as charged. “He then looks triumphantly at the devil who is the plaintiff and He says to God, “She is resting her case on My blood, which paid for her sins, past, present and future.”
 
God picks up His little gavel, smacks the desk with it and smiles at my Lawyer, “Jesus, Son, case dismissed.”
