The presence of God comes to give new meaning to everything.
He comes to redefine your life and your journey.
It’s not the end!
“By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also.”
1 Corinthians 6:14
Before, death only meant “the end.” Something that ceases to exist, no longer among us. It brought fear and uncertainty.
But Jesus redefined death. Through Him, death became the beginning of everything, the fulfillment of God’s promise.
This is the most wonderful part of grace: how it contradicts the obvious, how it doesn’t follow a pattern. It is poured out in a unique portion for each person, for each season, and for each situation.
It is unique and incomparable!
Comes from God
“Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die.”
John 11:25
To the world, it seems like foolishness. But for those who believe in God and know His Word, it is the power of God.
Without Jesus’ death, the Christian faith would just be an ideology.
An ideology can easily be created by intelligent people, but Christianity was not conceived by humans.
Grace, mercy, and this unconditional love would never have power if they were created by us.
Everything that comes from us is subject to error. Ideologies are questionable, fragile, and often contradictory ideas. But what is true, what is solid, cannot be altered; it is unchangeable.
The source of love
“Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If one were to give all the wealth of one’s house for love, it would be utterly scorned.”
Song of Solomon 8:7
God’s grace does not fail; it is strong and full of certainty. It’s something complex to understand and explain; only God can convince the heart and make us feel the full truth of the gospel.
Love is not just an idea. What Jesus did on the cross, His sacrifice, could only come from someone greater than us.
We came from this love, we were physically born through this love, and then we are born again in the Spirit through love.
He is greater, He is the source, He transforms and renews.
