Our only hope is Jesus! He is the eternal Word of God who in love entered our world to
bring life and salvation to all people. Jesus proclaimed Himself Lord and Christ and then
commissioned His apostles and disciples to proclaim repentance and forgiveness in His
name to all nations. In churches, in homes, in crowded marketplaces, and along road and
pathways, the Gospel has been proclaimed, and still is proclaimed, to save sinners. We’ve
gathered to hear Jesus speak. The Spirit of God is working to draw us to our Savior. Lord,
give us grace always to choose “the good portion.”
