The Perfect Ending She will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins. Matthew 1:21 When we dislike the ending of a book or movie, we try to imagine a better one: what we think should have happened. The wonder and goodness of creation was broken when Adam disobeyed God. We feel the burden of this brokenness and separation from God. Thankfully, the Creator did not end the story there. Just as a producer determines the last scene of a movie and a writer carefully crafts the final sentence of a book, God mercifully provided what we desire and desperately need: a Savior. We cannot save ourselves. Only God, who is powerful enough to create the world out of nothing and to give us life, could find the perfect solution to our brokenness and separation from Him: Jesus. Jesus is Gods final answer to the dilemma we face. He is God in the flesh, and the book of Hebrews elaborates on why Jesus is all we need. He is superior to every human leader, prophet, and priest. He offers us Himself along with forgiveness, life, and meaning. The moment someone chooses to trust in Jesus Christ, his sins are wiped away, and he is adopted into Gods family. That individual is set apart as a child of God, with a sacred purpose. Charles Stanley
