It’s painfully obvious that the arm of the flesh will fail you. My faith is not in any one person, preacher, politician, or party. None of them are my savior. They will disappoint you. They’re all sinners just like me. My utmost trust and confidence is in the One who bore my sin, the punishment, and hell that I deserved on an old rugged cross some 2000 years ago. His blood poured out in order to cleanse, purify, and make righteous all who will believe. He arose from the dead and ascended into Heaven to prepare a place for us.
Yes, in Christ alone, my hope is found.
“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent. For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.”
(Colossians 1:15-19, ESV)
Won’t you open your heart and receive Him today?
