We need a Savior!

We Need a Savior

Friday, January 18, 2008

“Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many.”
Hebrews 9:28 NKJV

“You can’t forgive me for my sins nor can I forgive you for yours. Two kids in a mud puddle can’t clean each other. They need someone clean. Someone spotless. We need someone clean too.

That’s why we need a savior.

Trying to make it to heaven on our own goodness is like trying to get to the moon on a moonbeam: nice idea, but try it and see what happens.

Listen. Quit trying to quench your own guilt. You can’t do it. There’s no way. Not with a bottle of whiskey or perfect Sunday school attendance. Sorry. I don’t care how bad you are. You can’t be bad enough to forget it. And I don’t care how good you are. You can’t be good enough to overcome it. You need a Savior.

haha. Max Lucado rocks. He's one of my fave authors, as many of you all know=)But you know what? God's still the best and my most loved author!Because even though He's the one who hung the stars in the galaxies, the one who created the heavens and the earth, and there has to be much more important things for Him to do..yet,He takes the time and effort to tell me(and you) in all sorts of ways possible that He loves us so dearly. That we are deeply loved, greatly blessed, and highly favoured.Jesus, You reign!
