Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Nada hubiese podido detener a Jesús de venir a salvarnos. Ni la distancia entre el cielo y la tierra, ni la dificultad de un embarazo inesperado, ni una ciudad llena de viajeros y padres cansados debido a un largo viaje, ciertamente no un rey maníaco que buscó la manera de terminar con sus vidas, ni una multitud gritando por su crucifixión, ni discípulos que lo abandonaron, ni soldados que se burlaron de Él, ni un látigo que le arrancó la piel, ni una cruz que reclamo su vida física. Entonces ¿qué te hace pensar que te dejara ir o se rendirá contigo, después que su amor capturo tu corazón?
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Amen and hallelujah! This passage is incredibly hopeful. Nothing could keep Jesus from coming to save you and me — not the distance between heaven and earth, not the difficulty of an unexpected pregnancy, not a city fully of travelers and parents tired from a long journey, certainly not a maniacal king who sought to snuff out his life, not jeering mobs crying crucify him, not disciples that abandoned him, not soldiers that mocked him, not a whip that raked his flesh, and not a cross that claimed his physical life. So what makes you think God would let you go or give up on you after his love has captured your heart at such a high price to him? Nothing in the created world can separate us from God's love! Nothing that the evil one throws at us can stop God's love from holding us fast. The apostle Paul is emphatic: Nothing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Mi oración
Abba padre, ayúdame a entender del todo tu amor. Dame la fuerza para soportar las dudas que Satán intenta plantar en mi corazón. Bendíceme con tu poder y hazme más fuerte, transformarme en una herramienta a tu servicio. Ayúdame a mantener mi mirada en ti, para no sucumbir ante mis dudas. En el nombre de Jesús, oro, Amen.
My Prayer...
Abba Father, help me understand your love more fully. It's unimaginable. It's unspeakably good. Thank you! Please bless me with the strength to overcome the doubts the evil one tries to plant in my heart. Please bless me with your gracious power and transform me out of my own weakness into a helpful tool for your service. Knowing you are with me, as I keep my eyes fixed on Jesus, whose hand will not let the waves claim me, please do not let my doubts destroy my confidence in your everlasting love. In Jesus' mighty name, I thank and praise you. Amen.
