What makes a peep Godly?

What makes a man or woman a Godly peep? Some, like legalists and fundamentalists ("fundees" some call them), think that its being moral and ethical, doing the "right" things or at least always trying hard. I don't think so. This may be what other peeps think makes one Godly, but God has other ideas on this.

God redeems all the mess peeps make, we are always guilty of falling below His standard for us. We pick and chose what aspects of our short comings make us "feel" guilty. But we guilty almost all the time in ways we do not trust Him.

A Godly peep is one that believes what God says about Himself and then about the peep themself. A Godly peep trusts that what God put inside them is good and that all He wants is for the peep to play it out with "reckless abandon" (Paul calls it boldly)trusting God for the results.

A Godly man or woman trusts God for their soul's well-being, not what the world provides.

Just saying ......
