Marginalia Monday -- Filthy Rags

Today's Bible pages got a little bit . . . sticky.  I read the verse that says, "our righteousness is as filthy rags," and I really wanted to portray the yuckiness and messiness of our own attempts at righteousness.  I ended up throwing some butterscotch, honey, nutmeg, food coloring, and actual rags onto this page of Isaiah.  I'll have to say this method really makes a Bible verse "stick" in my mind (haha :p), and I'm excited about remembering this important verse.


Everything I do to try to be good is useless.  Only God's grace can save me.  Thankfully, His righteousness is all I need.  What a wonderful thought to get me going through this Monday. :)
