And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation."
So often I'm caught up in this world. All I can think about is my present or my future and what I can or can't do. I worry about tomorrow, I worry about today, I worry about yesterday. I try to make life perfect and then I give up.
But the truth is that none of that matters. My life here is a breath in eternity, and my eternal purpose is to "glorify God and enjoy Him forever." The only way that's possible is because Jesus, the worthy Lamb of God, ransomed me with His precious blood. I was God's enemy and Jesus sacrificed Himself to intercede on my behalf. He forgave my wicked sin and brings me to the Father. He is my only hope and my only reason to live. When life is constantly changing and unstable, my rest is in His steadfast love and sure promises. He is my Redeemer, and He is worthy!
