Read: Hebrews 2:1-18
“Because of God’s grace, Jesus died for everyone. God… wanted many people to be his children and share his glory. So he did what he needed to do... He made Jesus a perfect Savior through his suffering” (Hebrews 2:9-10, ERV).
Because of Jesus’s suffering, we have the opportunity to enjoy a fresh start. Our past does not have to dictate our future. Through Jesus’s death and resurrection, we can experience life as a brand new person. Hebrews 2:14-17 says Jesus became human to save us from sin. “For only as a human being could he die, and only by dying could he break the power of the devil, who had the power of death… then he could offer a sacrifice that would take away the sins of the people” (NLT).
We are all messed up and need repair. When we enter a relationship with Jesus, we become new creations. Through grace (which I like to say stands for Great Riches At Christ’s Expense), God gives each of us the opportunity to start over, to let go of our past, and to move into the good life He designed for us.
So what are you waiting for? Receive the grace He died for you to receive and start being the person you were made to be.
