What Would You Give for a 2ND CHANCE?

When you put your faith and trust in Christ, you’re going to get a 2ND CHANCE! 

The world will not have any authority to label you as something “less than” in the eyes of God because you won’t belong to the world any longer. You’ll belong to God! 

For in Christ, . . . 

† He has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of His dear Son, who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins. 

Colossians 1:14

While on a trip to Cuba . . .

I took this picture while on a trip to Cuba. These old cars from the 1950’s that the Cuban people use as taxis in Havana, shouldn’t be running as good as they do. They are some 70+ years old in a place where parts are scarce!

I remember getting into one of these taxis, and it sure didn’t feel like you were riding in a 70 year old car. It ran like a luxury vehicle, smooth and quiet. It ran nothing at all like I had expected the car to run. No loud engine or “old school” rumble. 

I asked the taxi driver, “How are you able to keep these cars looking and running even better than they were first made?” He opened the hood and to my surprise the original Chevy motor had been replaced with a completely different Mercedes motor. 

There’s New Life in Christ!

The old life was truly gone, and a new life had begun! And in Christ, we have that same promise. 

† Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! 

2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT

In Christ, you’re going to get a 2ND CHANCE! The old life filled with its fleeting pursuits, quick fixes and sinful choices we have all made that separate us from God, is going to become a thing of the past. In God’s eyes, the guilt and shame for every wrong you have ever done will be wiped away, forgotten and removed far from you—“as far as the east is from the west” (Psalm 103:12). 

Through Christ you have the chance to turn away from an old life that has cost you so much pain and regret, maybe your dignity. It’s the open door to turn away from a life that has left you feeling worthless and kept you far apart from God’s peace and presence. 

It’s the 2ND CHANCE we all need for a fresh a start, a new beginning, a life forgiven and set free!

When you put your faith and trust in Christ, you’ll set a miracle in motion as He begins to give you a brand new identity and make all things new!

Do you know the Lord? Do you need a miracle to begin a turn around in your life? —> Follow Christ today!

Let’s PRAY!

Lord Jesus, your Word is faithful and true! It tells the story of how You died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. It shares your victory over death through your resurrection so that we might get that 2ND CHANCE we all need for a fresh a start, a new beginning, a life forgiven and set free! I pray for those who need that 2ND Chance today. Give them the grace to TURN to You right now, to COME to You right now, and to BELIEVE in You right now. In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen!
