"For the Son of Man came to
seek
and to save what was lost."
This isn't going to be a long post. I just had to share this thought.
Most of the world has heard of Jesus. They know who He is. They know what He did. They know all of these facts about Him. But too often, I think that that's where the world stops. At the facts. I'm talking about non-believers and believers alike. Because the fact is, Jesus is the Son of God. The fact is, He came to rescue the world by dying for our sins. The fact is, He came to save the lost. But He is so, so much deeper than facts. Jesus' death didn't just clear our sins for that time. His death and resurrection carries throughout the rest of time and eternity. I read that verse, Luke 19:10, the other day, and it hit me hard (again) just how personal and intimate Jesus is. He doesn't just wait for us to accept His salvation. He seeks. He pursues. He comes to find us. Even when we don't want Him, He seeks us. Even when we deny Him, He pursues us. Even when we screw up big time, He comes after us! That's not a fact of some far away or impersonal God. That's the TRUTH about a passionate, intimate God who wants nothing less than all of us. His Love is untameable, ungovernable, wild, passionate, unconditional, jealous, intimate, and ETERNAL.
Ahh! I'm so overwhelmed with my Savior who SEEKS ME.
The Best Is Yet To Come...
