The Joy of Salvation


I have never known a friendship like the one that I know now with the Lord. Even from my time of growing up, I never saw Him the way that I see Him now. Through eyes of love, deep understanding for His guidance and choice of words, I see Him the way I was always meant to. Throughout all of my times of loneliness even, I never considered that I had a permanent friend. One who wasn't bound by distance or by time. Someone who was always there and loved me before I even was.


This for me is the joy of salvation. The returning back to the good old friend that you never even knew you needed but your heart so longed for. The friend who gave His life away, because He deemed you so worthy of it. So worthy of the beating, bruising, and breaking of flesh- all for the hopes of your return back to your friendship.


This is what you long for. To have someone there for you like no other. Someone who doesn't judge you and just accepts you as you are. Someone who will always tell you the truth and yet provide a hope through the midst of the struggle with truth. The accepting of reality that you are not right now the person you are meant to be.


Salvation is your gift. No price tag. No need of a discount or coupon. It was paid for with the highest price. No value on Earth can compare. Take your gift, receive your friendship, and let Jesus love you as you are meant to be.
