Received salvation the day after Blessed Easter 8 years. Reason? Because at that time, I have no hope, nothing to hold on, no one to turn to. And then I went to this play on Easter Day and I saw this man who was beaten, bleed and risen from grave. I am like , ' Who is this man? He is blameless and why He did this?'This is the Jesus Christ, the God of the religion that my family asked me not to convert myself. In my thought, I was thinking, 'Isn't this man good. Why mommy and daddy asked me not to believe in Him?'. I did not ask much on why, what, should I this or that ... I know the next day after the play, I prayed a simple prayer. I said to Him, ' You have given me hope that I've been hoping for. You took away things I've been struggling.I don't know what I should do but I know that You are real like I can sense you and I want to know you.'
In a blink of an eye, it's EIGHT years now and I must say, this God of mine.. He is so faithful to me that sometimes I cannot take it. I meant, if I have to face with me.. I would just give up on me. But He did not give up.
That's the truth of Christianity, that Jesus Christ was resurrected on the cross because God never gave up on us. He sent His son to redeem us from sin, to give us the gift of Grace, to conquer wages of sin which is Death and give us everlasting Life that was already paid on the cross.
Today, I stand before the Worship in church.. singing 'Hallelujah, My God is a RISEN King.' . In my heart, I am really joyful that IT IS FINISHED. He is RISEN! It is done , my dear friend. No more. No more this and that. DONE!
Because Jesus DIED and He ROSE again!
The ultimate truth is that , It is all about Jesus Christ's resurrection. It is the part that gives you hope and reason to live.
Let me tell u a secret ..
If Jesus can die for you, what makes you think that He will give up on you? Why He came down to Earth and give up His life for you..shed His blood for you..? For what?
Because.. He loves you . He never want to give up on You. He LOVES YOU, my dear friend.
'At the cross I bow my knee
Where Your blood was she'd for me
There's no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Your glory fills the highest place
What can separate me now '
There's no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Your glory fills the highest place
What can separate me now '
Roman 5:9-11
9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through Him! 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to Him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! 11 Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
