Dispel the common misconception!

S - Scripture     

Matthew 19 v. 16  And behold, one came up to him saying, "Teacher, what good deed must I do, to have eternal life?" 

O - Observation    

Common Misconception. Nothing changes. Back then people were trying to earn their way into Heaven. Today, people are still trying to earn there way to Heaven. That is the beauty of the TRUTH.  We don't have to do good deeds, we don't have to earn our way to Heaven. Jesus already "bought" the ticket for us. It sounds too good to be true, but it is. God is Love. Reminds me of the saying from my Mission Trip: God Loved. God Gave. We Believe, We Receive. However, having such an awesome gift should compel us to live our lives for Jesus, its such a great way to say thanks!!!   

A - Application

Am I helping to dispel the common misconception?

P - Prayer      

Jesus, Thank you for such an awesome gift. Love Will.
