Love God Greatly: RisenSample

Holy. Without blemish. Blameless. This is how Christ presents us to God. Our sin caused us to be enemies of God. We were living for ourselves, not believing that God was who He said He was. By putting to death His own physical body, Christ has changed all of this. Through the death of Christ, we are reconciled to God.

Through the resurrection of Christ, we can live out this hope. God does not condemn us. Christ has removed all of our sin and shame, and we are blameless before Him. The resurrection changes us spiritually, allowing us to live out this truth. As we live for Christ, we remain steadfast, clinging to the hope of the gospel. We are servants of Christ, proclaiming the victory and redemption we have in Christ to the world. 

Lord Jesus, I praise You for the incredible work of redemption You have done for me. Thank You for taking the death I deserve and for reconciling me to God through Your death. Help me to remain firm in my faith. Help me not to lose the hope I have in the gospel. Amen.
