God is gracious, but don’t confuse His mercy with justice. God is not unjust when He acts in a holy manner against sin. Don’t ever get to the place that you are so used to mercy and grace that you abuse it by going on in your sin. Don’t question God when He does what He has every right to do to punish sin. Don’t abuse God’s grace; He will judge you, too. But do know this: He is holy, and He is to be feared.
