Gospel Reflections #579: The busy hands of God

John 3:19 says, "The light has come into the world, but people preferred the darkness to the light because of their evil deeds. It has already become judgment."

Jesus came into the world for our salvation.

Because of the influence of sin, we prefer darkness to light. But Jesus never condemns us because of that.

He extends His hand of salvation to us until the very end.

But the more we reject his hand, the more our hearts become so hardened that we cannot turn to God.

God does not judge us, but our choices determine the final outcome.

God continues to work in us from the moment we are unwilling to step out of the darkness, and the moment we are willing to step out of the darkness and into God's light, even for a moment, God holds us tight.

Our God will never let go of our hands.
