Salvation: The Restored Hope

In the beginning, God created man to serve Him - His creator. In the beginning, God created man to live a life of comfort, free from stress and distress. In the beginning, God gave man the opportunity to be what He (God) wanted him to be. In the beginning, God made available everything man needed at his disposal. In the beginning, God gave you the right to be what He had destined you to be.

Man was however deprived of that right at the fall in the Garden of Eden. Thus, you and I were stripped of our divine rights. Adam at the beginning also lost his divine inheritance, so also have you and I lost it. Could man ever regain his right to his inheritance? Would man live to be what he had been destined to be? So also you ask, can I ever be what I know I should be? Will I ever fulfill my destiny?

Salvation, yes salvation! Salvation brought renewed hope. Salvation gave back to man the life he lost at the beginning. It brought about a new beginning. Salvation became the genesis of mankind; a new foundation laid! Salvation is THE ONLY KEY TO FULFILLING YOUR DESTINY!

Your life only begins at salvation. Your life is renewed and handed the baton of hope and glory when you accept the sacrifice wrought by JESUS CHRIST, the Son of God who started another genesis of hope for you and I. Friend, your life hasn’t begun at all. It only begins when you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour. Why not allow him into your life you so much crave for?

When you wander aimlessly through life, you will still go back to God your creator after death with detailed explanation of how you spent or invested the precious life He gave you here on earth. Whatsoever it is you do now – don’t think it will ever be forgotten. There’s a book of records kept in heaven about your every action. More importantly, an angel accompanies you every time, always writing down in details all you do at every point in time. So, nothing you do is hidden.

When you appear before God, what will be the account you will give to Him? The ball is in your court. Will you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour? THE TIME IS NOW!

Forgiveness: An Attitude To Be Imbibed

When last were you wronged; yesterday, today, last week, last month, last year, two tears ago? The list is endless. However the question is; have you forgiven whoever offended you? We hold unto the pains of the past, the agony of failed relationships, the back-stabbing by friends so dear and close to you, the mishaps, etc all caused by somebody else.

Forgiveness is a virtue we must have in our lives if we are to move on. Forgiveness is what erases the memory of the past and gives us a new lease of life. Forgiveness gives us the go ahead to make new commitments (though with caution), discover new things explore new opportunities, break new grounds, open closed doors and finally fulfill our destiny.

No one in this life will truly move forward without having to forgive himself/herself of the mistakes he/she had made in the past. Don’t blame yourself again for your present predicament. Forgive yourself and move on. Do no more damage to yourself by this act. Please, forgive your friends and walk towards fulfilling your next goal.

Finally, forgiveness is made possible by the Holy Spirit of God. To err is human, to forgive divine. You need the divine ability of God to forgive and forget all past misdeeds either by yourself or others. The Holy Spirit grants you the grace to forgive others; invite him into your heart and allow him take control of that situation. Please, do give Him a chance to enable you forgive and forget.

God bless you.
