Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
“Los cristianos no son perfectos; sólo son perdonados.” Sabemos que no somos perfectos. Conocemos nuestras debilidades, incompetencias, pecados, defectos, inmadurez, cobardía... Pero Jesús demostró su amor por nosotros en la Cruz al ofrecer su cuerpo y derramar su sangre. Su sacrificio significa que Dios nos mira como “perfectos.” El sacrificio de Jesús significa que somos santos, sin mancha, y sin ofensa que nos culpe delante de Dios. ¡El sacrificio perfecto de Jesús nos ha traído perfecta reconciliación con Dios!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
"Christians aren't perfect; they're just forgiven." We know we are not perfect. We know our weaknesses, inadequacies, sinfulness, pettiness, immaturity, cowardice... But Jesus demonstrated his love for us on the Cross as he offered his body and shed his blood. His sacrifice means that God looks at us as "perfect." Jesus' sacrifice means we are holy, without blemish, and without chargeable offense in God's presence! Jesus' perfect sacrifice has brought us perfect reconciliation with God! God doesn't look at our sin, but Jesus's perfection.
Mi oración
Perdóname, Dios Todopoderoso, por mi pecado. Me canso tanto de ellos y me frustra mi propia inhabilidad para superarlos por completo. Fortaléceme, Padre, para poder tener más fortaleza y valor para enfrentar la tentación victoriosamente. Gracias, Dios de gloria, por compartir tu perfección y gloria conmigo enviando a Jesús. ¡Te alabo oh Dios, mi Roca y mi Redentor, porque me has hecho hijo tuyo! En el nombre del Señor Jesucristo. Amén.
My Prayer...
Forgive me, Almighty God, for my sins. I get sick of them, and I am frustrated with my own inability to overcome them completely. Strengthen me, dear Father, so that I will have more fortitude and courage to face temptation victoriously. Thank you, God, of glory, for sharing your perfection and glory with me by sending Jesus. I praise you, O God, my Rock, and my Redeemer, for you have made me your child! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I pray, praise, and thank you. Amen.
