07/10 2 Timothy 1:9
9 For God saved us and called us to live a holy life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that was his plan from before the beginning of time—to show us his grace through Christ Jesus.
DESERVE
We are quick to say we deserve this or deserve that when in fact we are blessed beyond our understanding. If we got what we deserved most of us would be in trouble. But the Lord gives to us not what we deserve but what He desires to give us. Jesus loves you. Love Him back.
