The Matchless Love that Covers Our Sins


John 12:32
And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.

There is sin in every human's life.  Even the tiniest of which separates us from ever entering into the presence of God.  While feeling true sorrow for our transgressions and making earnest attempts at not failing again are good things, they are not enough to bridge the gap from God that is caused by our sin.

Only the Cross of Jesus Christ is sufficient to reconcile the separation.  This way was made possible because of His death, resurrection and ascension into heaven.  Only through Jesus Christ can we have a place prepared for us in heaven for all eternity.  Only by accepting the invitation that He issues when He draws us unto Himself can we receive what has been set aside for us.  

Prayer
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your grace that prepares an inheritance for us that we did not earn.  We praise You for Your mercy that spares us from the destiny that we deserve.  We bless the name of Jesus who draws us unto Himself that we might overcome what the world has prepared for us and receive what Our Heavenly Father has prepared for us.  May our gratitude for Your matchless love be expressed in our living testimonies which draw others to the gift of salvation that is offered through Your Son.
