Hey, my friends. Welcome back to the morning mindset. I'm so thankful that you are with

entirely right. Something that's entirely pure, entirely good, entirely upright. That's

what righteous means. And friends, if you can stop for a moment and allow yourself to think

about the reality that you have been made righteous in God's sight and by God himself,

I think your mind will kind of go tilt a little bit. You just feel like you can't quite contain
