Every single one of us deserves to have the wrath of God poured out on us because of our sins. But God wants to save us and reconcile us back to Himself. This is our dilemma, God’s wrath demands our eternal punishment, but God’s love seeks our salvation and reconciliation. The only answer is that someone must take our place and bear the brunt of God’s wrath. That someone is none other than Jesus Christ, the only Son of God and the only perfect sacrifice for sin. He took upon himself the punishment for our sins and thus set us free from God’s wrath. This freedom is only available to those who have been buried in His blood and washed clean from their sins. Will you make that decision?

Let’s be the hands of Jesus by pointing and guiding others to this righteousness of which Jesus speaks. You and I can make the lives of those around us and ultimately this community better if we will do that. However, we must not forget. We cannot lead others to a place where we have not gone ourselves. Do you hunger and thirst for this righteousness of which Jesus spoke? Are you seeking first God’s kingdom and His righteousness? If not, you will never reach a point in life where you are truly satisfied, because eternity beckons in your heart.
