Jesus Christ came to seek and to save that which was lost.
He has done so.
The crisis in each of our lives comes in deciding if we want to be saved. We have to make the choice to accept what God has provided to us freely in Jesus Christ. This the step of faith that we must take trusting that God is faithful and that He will continue to love us just as He has already done so.
We may think that it is within our own power to save ourselves, but there is nothing we can do in our own strength or devices that will accomplish this. Only God is capable.
Ephesians 2:8-9 says,
"For it is by grace you have been saved through faith,
and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God,
not by works so that no one can boast."
Accept the free grace of God in your life today and accept the outstretched arm of Christ. The benefits are everlasting.
Christ in Christmas
Take time this advent season to re-align your focus on Jesus Christ.
He is the only reason for this season.
Take time each day to read the Scripture passage and to listen to the song.
