Free Gift

People are inherently stubborn. We still do things even though we already know that it is not good for us. Just the other day, I went to Popeye’s Fried Chicken to grab lunch. Though I know and can clearly see how greasy the deep-fried chickens are, I easily ate 3 pieces. Talk about cholesterol! And there is no difference when it comes to our spiritual life. Even from the beginning, God has made himself known to us, yet we ignore it.
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God … ” — Romans 3:23
We have failed to measure up to God, my friends. All of us, including me and you. But the good news is that it does not end there. God is gracious and have provided a way for us to be acceptable to Him.
“… and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” — Romans 3:24
You see my friends, God is good. All it takes is for us to believe and have faith in Christ. It has been given freely and nothing else needs to be done. Jesus said these words during his time here on earth:
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” — John 3:16
If you feel you need take that step of faith, please feel free to contact me here. It will be a blessing!
