What About My Son?

By Kay Heitsch

This question came to my mind. I had gotten into the trap of what I was supposed to do. Should I read the Bible more? Pray more? etc. etc. Then these words came. "What about my Son? Wasn't He enough? Anything you do is for your own good. The price has already been paid."

It wasn't very long before I encountered this Bible verse. "Jesus told them, "This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the One He has sent." John 6:29 NLT

The work God wants us to do is to believe in Jesus and His finished work on the cross.

Our Bible verse is one most people know. For God so loved the world that he gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 NIV

God loved the world so much that He came as a man (Jesus) who paid the price for our eternal life. Therefore, everyone who believes that what Jesus did was enough has eternal life.

The question still is, What About My Son? Has Jesus done enough for us, or do we still think we need to add our 2 cents worth?

Lord, help our unbelief.
