As a Believer... where is Jesus... when we sin...?
He never leaves us... or forsakes us...
There is nowhere... we can go from His presence...
By His Spirit... He lives in us...
We are His temple...
Where is Jesus... when we sin...?
With us...
Beside us...
In us...
Every sin... He takes as His...
He bore... bears... them all...
His blood... our justification...
Every sin... increases the costly suffering... born on the cross...
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree,
so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness;
by his wounds you have been healed.
1 Peter 2:24
Then today... not in my usual way... I turned on the TV while eating breakfast... surfing channels... I came to a man... sharing his testimony...
This man... unbelieving... pursuing the world's promises for fulfillment... found them empty... he then began seeking that which is Greater... open to Truth... he came to a moment of decision...
At the moment of his salvation... he heard God say...
I've been here all along... waiting... I'm so glad you've come...
Even for the unbeliever... He is waiting...
For ALL created beings... He waits... not wanting anyone to perish...
He died for all sins...
A reminder... He's waiting on those I love... He's there with them... in all... through all... and He calls me to wait... with Him...
The recurrent Psalm... it challenges... and calls... again...
On God alone, O my soul, wait in silence,
for my hope is from Him.
Psalm 62:5 ESV
Lord... help me wait with You... on You...
Teach me to wait... like You...
