Enough, I’m tired of thinking about the things bombarding Christianity. Today I want to think about something beautiful and lovely instead. I want Good News, not the news proclaimed by the ‘god of this world’ who seems very adept at blinding the eyes of unbelievers.
I want to think about Jesus. I want to think about the fact that when sin abounds, grace will abound even more! I want to think about falling in love once again with the Savior of my soul. I want to sing the great doxology with Jude, a servant of the Lord and a brother of James (both of whom were “brothers” of our Lord Jesus).
“To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy- to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.” [Jude 24-25 NIV]
He will keep us from falling … even while the enemy of our soul is doing everything he can to trip us.
He will present us before His glorious presence without fault and with great joy … even while the enemy of our soul is doing everything he can to tempt us to sin and load us with guilt and shame.
Our Savior, the only God, reigns with all glory, majesty, power and authority, now and forevermore. And we are secure in Him. Yes, that is what I want to think about today. Amen and Amen.
