“For God’s will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once and for all. ” Hebrews 10:10
It was clearly the will of our God in heaven for us to become holy even though we were born sinners. Because of the sin that was allowed to enter the world, through the sin of Adam and Eve, our God had a back-up plan. He did not want a single one of us to die in our sins. He went to the extent of allowing his son, Jesus, to take our place, and in turn, with our belief and faith in him, we are allowed eternal life. Because of that action, that was driven by God’s love for all of his children, you and I are given the opportunity to live! We are given the chance to live lives here on this earth that are accompanied with persecution from the unbelievers and the haters. We are given the chance to show others what it is to truly believe and live our beliefs. We can know that no matter what we are going through here on this earth, Jesus, went through it all for us. He walked the earth, was persecuted, spit upon, laughed at and accused of being a false prophet. He died a horrible death and went to hell and back for you and for me. What are we now doing for Him? Are living in fear? Are we living in doubt and worry? Do we believe what the world tells us? Are we partakers of what the world teaches? Or are we believers in the ways of Christ Jesus? Are we living in faith and truth? Are we showing the world around us the strengths and the faith that we have developed in our Lord and Savior? It is time to take a step back and take a somber look at what we are doing with our lives. If you need Jesus, then ask Him to come into your life. He will knock and when he does, please invite him in. He has proven his love for us. It is time for us to prove our love for Him. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
