Why Did He Come?

Luke 10 NLT “Jesus responded, “For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.”

What a relief it is to know the real purpose for which Jesus was born of a woman and walked this same earth I walk upon. He came to seek and save the lost.

So what does that mean for me now that I have accepted Jesus as my Savior and have been saved? I believe it is now my purpose to continue His work by telling others about how my life has been changed by having a relationship with Jesus. He is my constant companion. He fills my heart with hope and joy and I want this to show in all I do and say. I want to plant seeds of hope. It is not my job to save. That belongs exclusively to Jesus.

I’m a sinner. No matter how I’d like to never commit a sin again, I can never reach that goal until my body dies and my soul rises to heaven. But I can be a better person today than I was yesterday. Every day is a new gift from God. A new day to do better, to be thankful, and spread kindness.

Are you lost? Do you believe you are too mired in sin to be forgiven? Jesus already died for those sins. The price is paid. All you have to do is ask Jesus to forgive you. Ask Him to help you become a better person, for your life to be changed. Give thanks for His love. And believe.
