There’s a Plus Sign on the Steeple!
“Look, Daddy, that church has a plus sign on the steeple!” A young child exclaims. All I can say is Amen! I wish all of us would look at the cross on the steeple and realize what a “plus” that is. The Christ on the cross brings a plus to life.
I often see people living with more burdens than they can bear. Often, they try hiding by using alcohol or drugs. Sometimes they lash out at others when they are not mad at them at all. At some time in our life we all need the plus sign on top of the steeple. Jesus died because he knew that. He died to forgive us and give us another chance.
No matter who we are or what stage of life we are in, Jesus died for each of us. The promise of eternal life is for each of us. All we have to do is claim it. Christ will accept us wherever we are, but he will never leave us there.
“Romans 6:23: “The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ.”
