Romans 5: 6-8 For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
I have heard this many times, “If I were to walk into church the walls would fall down.” This is the response of some when invited to go to church. The meaning of this is that their sin is to big for Christ’s blood to cover. I at one time in my life had this as my motto. The difference between now and then, I met Christ personally. My eyes were opened and I understood how powerful a sacrifice was made to save me.
I realized in the moment Jesus came into my life how truly weak I was. I was a slave to my sin, my addictions and my fears. It took a stronger presence in my life than the strength of my weakness. That strength was when I realized a perfect God, sent His perfect Son, to die for me. A man may die for his family but no one one would die for me but Christ. This is when the light flipped on. His love for me was greater than anything I ever have or ever will experience.
If you are living in your sin right now, know there is a way out. Drugs, alcohol or whatever else has you chained down. Even when we are at our worst, Christ still gave all for us. This is bigger and better than anything else you can ever experience. You just have to have the faith to take the steps towards Him. When you do, you will not be disappointed.
