Love’s Greatest Gift

Bible in a Year: Genesis 43-45, Matthew 12:24-50

We all, like sheep, have gone astray.
Isaiah 53:6

Today's Scripture & Insight:

My son Geoff was leaving a store when he saw an abandoned walking frame (a mobility aid) on the ground. I hope there isn't a person back there who needs help, he thought. He glanced behind the building and found a homeless man unconscious on the pavement.

Geoff roused him and asked if he was okay. "I'm trying to drink myself to death," he responded. "My tent broke in a storm, and I lost everything. I don't want to live."

Geoff called a Christian rehabilitation ministry, and while they waited for help, he ran home briefly and brought the man his own camping tent. "What's your name?" Geoff asked. "Geoffrey," the homeless man answered, "with a G." Geoff hadn't mentioned his own name or its uncommon spelling. "Dad," he told me later, "that could have been me."

Geoff once struggled with substance abuse himself, and he helped the man because of the kindness he'd received from God. Isaiah the prophet used these words to anticipate God's mercy to us in Jesus: "We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all" (Isaiah 53:6).

Christ, our Savior, didn't leave us lost, alone, and hopeless in despair. He chose to identify with us and lift us in love, so that we may be set free to live anew in Him. There's no greater gift.

Reflect & Pray
Where would you be without Jesus? How can you be His hands and feet for someone in need?

Thank You, Jesus, for coming to rescue me. Help me to join in Your search-and-rescue mission and to share Your love with someone who needs You today.

GOD HAS A SUBSTITUTE

by Pastor E.A Adeboye

GOD HAS A SUBSTITUTE

One thing we need to learn in today's reading is that God always has a substitute. If God says He wants you, rejoice! However, be careful, because even as He is choosing you, He has already prepared a substitute.
