Prayer Devotional

We believe God wants all to have an encounter with Him so that we have the confidence to know that we have eternal life. The only way to know this is if our salvation rests in Jesus and not our own performance. If it depends on us, then we are saved on a good day, and on a bad day, we aren't really sure. If I rely on what Jesus has done for me, then I can know that God has given me eternal life. Specifically, giving Jesus His rightful place will cause us to walk in humility and grace.
