Made right

“For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood. This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past, for he was looking ahead and including them in what he would do in this present time. God did this to demonstrate his righteousness, for he himself is fair and just, and he makes sinners right in his sight when they believe in Jesus.”Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭25‬-‭26‬ ‭NLT‬‬

All the years I walked this earth , 19 to be precise, before I understood this importance of this text. Prior to that day I thought I had to earn my salvation. However, my misery told me I had failed , again and again. Yet, the joy I experienced when I understood the truth has not left me. For ever I am grateful for the work Jesus did!

Salvation is mine because of Jesus and only because of Jesus. I cannot be tempted into working for salvation again. I will walk in faith towards His work, always. Amen!
