“On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”-Mark 2:17
We are all sinners! We are not Christians because we are so good, but because Jesus is so good ?. And He loves us more than we could ever imagine!
We follow Christ, not only because we need a Savior to go Home to Heaven, but we also need Him in our daily lives.
It is amazing how much God helps us in our daily lives. To give an example, I have chronic heart failure, lung problems, rheumatoid arthritis, back problems, Hashimoto’s Disease, Graves, TED and Cerebellum Atrophy (ataxia). I am currently being tested to see if I have Multiple System Atrophy. And yet, I am one of the happiest people you will ever meet ?.
That is God at work in my daily life. It’s not that some of these illnesses aren’t difficult to live with; it’s that God makes them livable. And whenever I feel too tired or too sick, it is God who “lifts me up and out, and gives me a break”. I have never been unable to do what I need, nor have I ever missed out on anything I truly wanted to do. That is also God at work in my daily life.
So for those who think Jesus is just about whether we go to Heaven or not, while Heaven is wonderful-Daily Life can be so much happier and easier with our Lord. He loves us all and came for all of us. He will meet us where we are! So don’t wait! Call on Jesus now 🙂
“And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 4:7
