but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe. – Hebrews 1:2 (NIV)
Jesus was there at the beginning. Isn’t that an amazing thought? He was the one who helped make the universe. And instead of being too busy or important, He came to earth for us.
He laid down all the greatness He had. He humbled Himself and came to be the one to redeem us back from the curse of sin.
That’s the good news of the gospel. But it’s easy to get used to that fact and not really think about how important it is for us. See, God has made it possible for us to know Him. We can fellowship with Him and enjoy His presence through Jesus.
We can walk in freedom from sin because of Jesus. We are valued and loved all because of Jesus. So when you have a bad day, or when you think you can’t go on, just remember this truth. God made you, He loves you, and He sent His son for you.
Decide today to remind yourself of how good Jesus is. From creation until now, He’s been looking out for you. He loves you and has good things in store for you.
