Verse of the Day: Isaiah 53:5 "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."
I am sure everyone is familiar with the show Intervention. If not, it is basically what the title suggests. It is about people who are addicts, drunks, gamblers, etc. It shows their lives and how far deep they are down...hanging on by a thread. Then there are the loved ones who so badly want to pull them out of their addictions. So they intervene (get it...intervention). They try so hard to pull these people up and get them the help they need...a cure. Sometimes the people reject the help but more times then not they accept it thankfully.
God is like that. We are all sinners...addicted to our lives and to our sins. But God loves us too much to leave us like that. He is the ultimate Loved One. He sees us lost and hanging on for dear life. Then, through divine intervention, he reaches down and lifts us up. He offers us help...a cure from our sins. It is through Jesus Christ that we are healed. Some will reject. Others will accept the free gift.
