My Thoughts

Salvation and Significance, it's not about you.

As people, we cry out from our struggles and have an emotional response to our circumstances that leave us feeling close to God or further away. I want you to realize your salvation in Christ, through his sacrifice of blood shed on the cross, cuts through your emotions and circumstances and sets you free. You might want to say 'but you don't know what i've been through and what I'm faced with right now.' He says, it's not about you, it's been dealt with by my son on the cross of Calvary. You may try to keep going back in the conversation in your mind and say but I'm so depressed and anxious that I can't even feel God. He says, it's not about your feelings, it's been dealt with by my son on the cross at Golgotha. You may be so sick and moving close to him in death and not really even up to even thinking about him and you feel bad for not feeling better about Him. He says, it's not about your health, physically or psychologically, it's been dealt with by my son on the cross.

Let God cut through all of your thoughts and hang-ups today and just rest, knowing that he has paid the price to reconcile you to himself through the death of Jesus Christ on the cross. And praise him with your lips that he knows you have and will exalted him while you live on this earth. Romans 10:9 states: Confess with your mouth 'Jesus is Lord' and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved.
