I am so grateful for ALL that God has done for me! He is SO good, so much better than I deserve. And yet because of what Jesus has done for us, he says we do deserve it, now that is GRACE! And I am so grateful for grace!
He who knew no sin became sin so that we might become the righteousness of God (2 Corinthians 5:21), wow! I find it amazing that when you give your heart to Jesus he returns the favor! So, when God looks your way he sees his son Jesus and he is pleased! Did you know that God doesn’t want to punish you? That’s what Jesus died for! Jesus satisfied the wrath of God and took our place, he took the punishment that should have been on us because of our sin. Because of what Jesus has done God is pleased in us and the only work that God has required of us is to believe!
Will you believe that it’s true today? That God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16). Oh how he loves us! He took our punishment upon him, he dealt with sin, judgment and condemnation all so we don’t have to and so we can enjoy a personal, vibrant relationship with God. This is grace, are you grateful? I am!
Blessings,
John
