Every promise of God has its
completion in Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning
and the end, the Way, the Truth and the Life.
All the purposes and plans of God are wrapped up in Christ and before
time Christ had our names written on the palms of His hands.
We live and breathe in a world that
is strewn with barricades and has put up walls to make us feel blind to the
love of the Father through Christ. But God’s desire for us is that we feast on
the finished work of His son. God sent his son into the world not to condemn us
but to release us into abundant, everlasting life.
But how do we receive all that God
wants us to have? By fixing our eyes on Christ. Desire comes first by peering
at the object of our affection. When we see Jesus in all his goodness, all his
love, all his beauty and the fountain of eternal unmerited grace, we will
slowly become more like him.
When we see Him in all his beautiful
grace, we fall deeper in love with him. We realise with overwhelming delight
that we are now Sons of God and joint-heirs with Christ and that Christ is
totally united inside of us, closer than a lover, by the power of the Holy
Spirit.
