There is no substitute for the beauty of Christ’s love in action. He saw our need to be rescued and was able to do it. For the joy set before Him, He chose to endure the shame and suffering required to complete the task (see Hebrews 12:2). Father, help us not to turn away from the purity of Your Good News to the world through Jesus Christ, Your Son and our Savior.-Teresa

Galatians 1:3-7 (NLT)

3 “May God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ[b] give you grace and peace. 4 Jesus gave his life for our sins, just as God our Father planned, in order to rescue us from this evil world in which we live. 5 All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.

6 I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to himself through the loving mercy of Christ.[c] You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News 7 but is not the Good News at all. You are being fooled by those who deliberately twist the truth concerning Christ.”
