December 19, 2016

John 5:  24. "Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life."

Jesus has been questioned by the religious authorities. He is having trouble, since their only goal is to stop his ministry. They don't see who he is at all. He is trying to explain his function in God's big picture.

It's so easy, and it's so hard. We will face judgment from Jesus, and we are so unworthy. We stand convicted of so many sins, but we are redeemed through Christ's sacrifice. It's our only hope.

Prayer:  Lord, I confess of all the ways I haven't lived up to Your vision of all I can be. I am sorry for my indifference to the suffering of others. I pray to be more faithful, to put my beliefs into my daily activities.
Amen
