Let us set things right

“Come now, let us set things right, says the LORD: though your sins be like scarlet, they may become white as snow; though they be crimson red, they may become white as wool.” (Is 1: 18)

Setting “things right” is God’s project for us: our hearts should be free from sins and “become white as snow … and wool” because our hearts are the unique place where God makes His dwelling.

“Cast away from you all the crimes you have committed, says the LORD, and make for yourselves a new heart and a new spirit.” (Gospel Acclamation)
