She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. – Matthew 1:21
We try to ignore it. We try to downplay it. We try to run from it. We try to overcome it. But no matter what we do, cannot change reality: This world is undeniably broken. Our world is the inevitable ruin that comes when every person does what is right in his or her own eyes and chooses to do what feels good over what God says is good. We need a Hero to save the day. We need a Liberator to set us free. We need a Healer to make us whole. We need a Satisfier to make us content. We need a Ruler to reign over us for good. We need a Savior to save us from our sins. We. Need. Jesus. He came to make us right with God, He is with us so we can make it through this world, and He is returning to make all things as they should be.
