Salvation

Good Morning, It's Another Wonderful, Worshipful Wednesday!! How do we handle our Salvation? Are we careless or slothful? Do we share it with others? What if we could lose it? Our salvation is the most precious of all gifts,...and these are questions we need to ask, now and then. Personally, I want to be found faithful with the gifts and talents God has given me. These gifts are too valuable to be taken for granted,...and yet, we still do.

Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.—1Timothy 6:12 (NIV)

At first, we cherish our salvation, knowing that it is a gift too precious to ever earn. We thank God for the privilege of knowing Him and we praise Him for His Spirit dwelling inside us. Then as time passes, we start to take our Christianity for granted,...mostly because we forget what it meant, and the price that was paid for it.

Jesus has given Himself to us as a gift,...and nothing is of greater value than that.
Are we thanking the Lord for it still,…every day?
Lord, impress upon us when our heart is wondering. We really do value all You've done for us, and we appreciate all that we have. We ask You to convict us of any behavior that is not pleasing to You. Forgive our carelessness regarding the privilege of knowing You through Your Son, Jesus. We pray for the return of the joy of our salvation, and to lead others to You. Amen.
