1 Corinthians 1:18 “For the message about the cross is foolishness
to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of
God.”
Have you ever spoken with someone about the gospel and seen this
unbelieving look in their eyes? They
look at you either like you are a bit crazy or with pity because you are
foolish to believe such nonsense. Some say we are so unrealistic and live in a
dream world. I guess if your heart is
hardened and you are not open to receiving Love, this gospel story would seem a
bit far-fetched. I know the love I feel
for my children and I know that God loves his children in perfection, well beyond
anything I could ever attain. He loves
all of us with an unending love and has reached out to us since the beginning
of time. The love and power behind the gospel
message is unfathomable. God’s own son
was sacrificed on the cross to cleanse the world’s sins and break down the
barrier between the Divine and us. In
His mighty power He defied death and rose again bringing His gift of salvation
into reality. When I read this story and
think about the cross, His death and His sacrifice for my salvation ... I wish
I could share the depth of love I feel.
I hope and pray that all will come to believe the message of the cross
so that none will perish and we can all join together is praising the Almighty!
Lord,
Your love is amazing to me.
Thank you for opening our hearts to the message of the cross and I ask
that through my actions and prayers, through my words and deeds others will
come to hear the message and be saved by your grace. I praise you this morning, you are all
powerful and Almighty and you love each one of us. Thank you Lord! Amen.
