If Only…….
If only I did it that way……. If only I said it differently…….
I’m sure you’ve said these exact words before, trying to justify some of your actions.
You’ve let God become a teacher, a father who gives instructions and expects you to obey him, even though you can see the truth behind all what God is showing you, you still don’t connect with him!
God is not just a father that wants us to obey him, he wants to have communion with us, he looking for a sincere relationship! He is passionate about us, he demonstrated his immense Love on the cross.
The cross is a symbol of death not of faith, he became a man & died for our sins even the ones we will do. God took his wrath on Jesus to show he’s just, he treated him like one of us, he took our filth & our sin and the beauty of it is if we’re in Jesus we are included in him!
Jesus tasted death & it didn’t feel right, still doesn’t sink in right? God actually died and it looked like a king & father had given up his crown, reign and children. But after the 3rd day he rose again & we’re no longer under sin but under grace. He’s already said not guilty & the resurrection proves it.
So stop trying to pay your own debt or say only if I did it this way, God doesn’t even expect it, the resurrection is not just a stamp but it’s a guarantee. Jesus paid it all.
May we live in freedom as he has set us free.
