Just Say Yes

​Scripture tells us that Salvation comes by faith through grace. In that statement lies the foundation of our Christian walk. We walk by Faith. The same faith that leads us to salvation directs the steps of our lives, but that’s not easy! It’s not easy to have Faith that the God of creation cares about what I do today, but he does! It’s not easy to relinquish control of our own lives in favor to live under the control of an almighty being. But, that is Faith. The first book of the Bible points to faith many times and today’s reading is no exception. Look at the life of Rebekah in Genesis 24. She had a choice to go and marry a man that she had never met. What she knew of him was based on the testimony of someone she had just met, and the stories of his father she had known. Rebekah chose to step out on Faith and go and meet her husband! Today you may have that same choice to make as Rebekah. You are being invited to be the bride of Jesus Christ. Maybe you have never met him and all you know of him comes in the way of the testimony of people you barely know. You have heard of his father and seen his handiwork all around. But the choice is yours. Will you go? Will you listen to the Holy Spirit that has gone before the testimony to call out to your heart and prepare the way? The decision is hard but the way has been made perfect for you, just say yes. And then when you see the Savior, the Husband, you, just like Rebekah, will run to His arms! My prayers today are for salvation! Salvation through faith by grace!
