EXTRA PAYMENTS AND A WASTED CROSS
Every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God, from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool. For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.
Hebrews 10:11-14
It was a little more than a year ago that we paid off my wife's car. It was the most expensive car we had brought, and it was the perfect family vehicle for us. After we spent four years making monthly payments, the car was completely paid for. After we made the last payment, the bank sent us the title to the car.
If, when the next month rolled around, I authorized the bank to withdraw the amount of the monthly car payment from our account, you'd think I was foolish. People don't make extra car payments. Once a car is paid for, the hard-earned cash goes toward something else.
Just as you would question me about extra car payments, I want to question you about why you are trying so hard to earn God's acceptance and ignoring Jesus grace. Why are you trying to be your own savior? Open your eyes and see the amazing grace of God. Jesus offered Himself as the complete payment for your sins.
Prayer :
Father, I want to know Your grace and rest in Your acceptance of me. Remind me often that I obey Your commands to show You my love, not to earn Your love. I am deeply humbled and grateful for Your grace. Amen.
