God’s Surprise

Virgil Warren, christir.org PDF

Who would think that a dead man could save anybody? God does surprise us with solutions to needs in ways we would never imagine. In this case, he has used Christ’s obedience even to death as a basis for offering life to all who avail themselves of the offer.

Today we use these emblems to reaffirm our own commitment to God through the Christ who gave body and blood for goodness’ sake. It may surprise us what God can do through our willingness to live out his purposes through us.
