Finished Faith!

"Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection].  He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God." -Hebrews 12:2 (AMP)

Do it yourself home improvement projects can sometimes take longer than expected.  Sometimes we start them, but can get in over our heads and need to call in a professional.  When we consider our faith, we are blessed.  In our faith, we have THE professional by our side.

Jesus is the source or author of our faith.  He is the Prince sent by His Father to show us holiness in earthly form.  His sacrifice on the cross allows us to be redeemed and cleansed of sin.  His sacrifice finishes our faith, bringing it to maturity and perfection.  Jesus was the beginning and end of the plan to save all of us.  We just have to turn to Him and accept His sacrifice for us!

Jesus is the beginning and end of the plan to redeem you.  Have faith and accept His sacrifice for you!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for sending Jesus to both begin and end the plan for my redemption.  Please cleanse me from my sin and help me to live with You forever.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
