Inspiration
We humans get hurt when we choose offense, especially if the offender is someone we love. The pain we feel makes it difficult to forgive and eventually leads to separation. The condition for patching things up lies in the offender's repentance and request for forgiveness.
Man became separated from God as a result of sin. In his fallen state, man was incapable of repentance and forgiveness since sin had replaced the nature of God. Because of God’s love for man, He came up with the ultimate plan for man’s redemption. By paying the debt penalty for our sins through the death of Jesus, God reconciled with us and removed the barrier of separation. We are now new creatures in Christ through faith, forgiven and free to serve the Lord.
It is now our duty to proclaim this good news to the world. We should rise up for the salvation of others now that we are saved. We are his ambassadors, God’s representatives entrusted with the responsibility of preaching the message of reconciliation. The good news of relief from sin through forgiveness, salvation from God’s wrath, and acceptance into God’s family by faith must be preached in word and in daily living.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I am thankful for the salvation of my soul from sin and death. Thank You for the gift of eternal life and the privilege to be Your child. Help me not to be selfish about my salvation. Enable me to rise to share the news of my newly found life in Jesus. Let the love for lost souls increase in my heart. Through the Holy Spirit, I pray that many will be inspired by my new lifestyle to turn to the Lord and reconcile with their loved ones. 
In Jesus's name I pray. Amen.
