He Came For Me

For even I, the Son of Man, came here not to be served but to serve others, and to give my life as a ransom for many. Matthew 20:28 (NLT)

Jesus came for me. We can get so confused, but Jesus knew the purpose of his life. He states clearly he came to serve and not to be served; he also says he came to give his life as a ransom for many. That one word, many, gets us all into trouble sometimes. We easily believe that Jesus came for the world. We even say, “He came for you,” but do we believe this truth about ourselves?

Jesus came for me!

Go ahead and insert your name into that verse at the top of this page. Go ahead, I’ll wait! Here’s your example: For even I, the Son of Man, came here not to be served but to serve others, and to give my life as a ransom for Zac Pittman. Now how does it feel to have your name there? It blows me away to think God cared about me so much that he would pay my debt for me, but he did! Because of that amazing truth, I can be freed from my past and all of my mistakes, errors, and shortcomings and be the person God wants me to be.

It is a life changing truth, and if your life has been changed by the incredible power of God, then you have the responsibility of sharing that story with those around you. This Sunday is one of the most overtly spiritual times on our calendar, and most people are simply one invite from attending church somewhere.

We want to help you! Today, Thursday, March 20th, Higher Calling is running a half page ad in the main section of the Indianapolis Star. This was made possible through your generous support. Go out today, find that ad, and use it to invite those you care about to our Easter service. Let everyone you know have the opportunity to hear the life changing message of God’s love for them.
