The Decay Within, Day 7

The standard. Read Amos chapter 7.

As the Lord is speaking to Amos, we see that God is setting the standard. He show Amos a plumb line. This is used in construction to help find truly straight up and down. The people have fallen away from God and the people are no longer true.

When we measure ourselves against others, we are generally not too bad. However, when we are measured to God, we will find that we will never measure up. Are we repenting to God? Do we hold ourselves to his standards?
