Saved through Jesus...

Father, your creation declares your greatness and lovingkindness, encouraging statements of pure truth in our daily walk... Yes, we are condemned by own sins, our own actions, but this has never been your focus, never desiring for us to keep going down our own paths away from your ways. Quite the contrary, O Lord, "For God (you) did not send his (your) Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him (through Jesus)." (John 3:17) It's a difficult process, for we've been taught to take ownership of our own actions, to take our lumps for doing wrong. I suppose this is why many feel that they're not good enough to go to church, not good enough to become a follower of Jesus Christ, but submitting to your will and thinking less of ourselves as we should, is the only way to go. Submitting to your will by being baptized into the blood of Jesus Christ, and in doing so, setting our lives in motion forevermore, forgiven forevermore… Thank you, Jesus, for showing us that you are the way, the truth, and the life; THE answer for those committed to seeking the truth in all things!
