Judas sold Him. Peter betrayed Him. The Jews disowned Him. The Romans whipped Him. Pilate crucified Him. The cross hung Him. Nails drove through Him. The Father turned from Him. He laid down His life for the sins of the world. The Lord, Jesus Christ, died... but He rose again.
God,
You’re rich in mercy & never-failing love. Help remind me of that truth through my interactions today. Let everyone who sees me; see you in me.
You cannot earn salvation. You cannot be good enough for God. You cannot serve enough, work enough, know enough, love enough, to be good enough. Only Jesus is enough to save us. Only His work satisfied God’s wrath. Only His love is perfect. He’s the only One. Repent & Believe.
I never want to be the kind of Christian who portrays themselves as perfect. I have flaws, I struggle daily, and I’ve been broken beyond words. and that’s exactly why I need Jesus.
