Acknowledging Christ as Lord
Something that I have been thinking about lately is, is it possible to lose our salvation? I know that it seems like the answer is "no" automatically, because once we are saved, God holds onto us, even if hard times when we feel He isn't there. That may the Holy Spirit speaking to us in that moment of weakness, but then we begin to look at it further.
I've really backslid for awhile, and wanted to grow closer in Christ. It seemed I didn't know how. But here it says that once we acknowledge Christ as Savior, we are saved by faith and by God's grace. I have acknowledged Christ as my Lord and Savior, and as the true Lord and Savior! But as of lately, it's hard for me to remember that because I've gotten caught up in life's troubles and struggles. And I've thought to myself, does salvation still apply to me? Am I still saved? Like I said, the first answer I know deep down is true is, "Of course David, you're so silly." But when I think too much on it, I just think I'm too deep in my sin to be saved. The wages of sin is death, but that's guilt speaking. I have been saved, by a loving and compassionate Savior, I just need to remember that. Thank you Jesus, I adore you : )
Help me remember that, and anyone reading this, I ask for your prayers. And in the same way, I will pray for you!
