Nothing

Are you involved in a story of great grace? How about giving to someone who can offer nothing in return? How about serving a person in need?

God says that nothing in all creation is hidden in his sight. “Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account” (Hebrews 4:13). You may pull the wool over the eyes of men, but nothing is hidden from God.

The penalty of sin is death, a penalty that Jesus took on himself. “For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed” (1 Corinthians 5:7b). Because of Jesus, eternal death passes over us, and we pass over from physical death to eternal life.

But, remember, every movement leading to the cross was fulfilling Scripture. Jesus came to give His life as a ransom for us. Nothing took place outside of God’s sovereign plan.
