God Can Change Your Life

Ever felt like you've made too many mistakes for God to love you?  If so, I want to share with you some good news that may change your life.  You are not the only one that has struggled with sin.  Everyone makes mistakes and God, in His perfection, can't have fellowship with anything that's not perfect.  Sinners must pay for their sins; yet rather than making us pay for what we've done wrong, God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to take our punishment.  God does not condemn those who accept Jesus' sacrifice, because He sees Jesus' perfection in us.  God created us to love and serve Him, and He likes to take broken people and turn their lives around.  God's power is so great that He can take your life and turn it into something He can use for His glory.

You are not the only one who has sinned.  Whether they seem great or small, everyone has something in their lives that they look back on and wish they had never done.  The reason for this is simple: we're fallen human beings.  At one time we all were "gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts" (Ephesians 2:3).  Sin is an inherent part of all of us.  We were born with the desire to do those things which are contrary to God's law.

Romans 8:1 says: "...there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."  This verse trumpets good news for sinners.  When we go to God for mercy and ask Him for His forgiveness for our mistakes, He not only forgives us, but He doesn't think about our sins anymore.  Rather than hold us responsible for our sin, God sees the sacrifice Jesus made as the payment for all our sins: past, present, and future.  God sent His Son into the midest of broken and depraved humanity that we might experience true life.

God created us to love and serve Him.  Ephesians 2:10 says: "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works..."  God didn't create us to do good works in order to earn our salvation; instead, He wants us to do good works and serve Him out of thanksgiving for the love He has shown us.  When we accept Jesus' sacrifice as payment for our sins, we develop a desire to love others like God has loved us.

God holds in His hand the power to transform your life.  I guarantee that if you accept Christ as your Lord and Savior, your life will never be the same again; He'll change you from the inside out.  God changed my life, and I know He can change yours.
