Salvation

The word "salvation" is quite fascinating

By FOUAD GAMIL Published 2 years ago 2 min read

The word "salvation" is quite fascinating. What does it mean to be saved? Is salvation important? Is a person really so burdened that they need someone to save them?

"Salvation" is a word we often repeat, and sometimes its meaning can get lost in the hustle and bustle of our conversations, in our busy and fast-paced lives. Although we need to continually understand the depth of its impact in our lives, unfortunately, we don't always manage to keep our eyes fixed on its profound meaning.

However, there is a certain group of people who can never lose sight of the meaning of the word, nor can they lose its impact in their lives, no matter the difficulties, problems, or pressures.

These people are those who have tasted the bitterness of sin and fallen under its oppressive power. These are the ones who have tried a thousand times to free themselves but have failed. These are the ones who, the more they try to rise, the deeper they sink. These are the ones whose first thought every morning and last thought before sleep is, "I am a slave, and I cannot save myself." These are the ones who have realized the truth: "I need someone to save me."

When these people experience true freedom, they are the ones who truly understand the meaning, value, and impact of salvation from sin. They have tasted its bitterness and realized their own will's incapability of saving them. That's why, when they hear the word "salvation," it meets them with deep feelings, an amazing appreciation, a humble heart, and a silence filled with internal praise: "Thank you, Lord, for saving me." And tears fall, but they are not tears of sadness; they are tears of joy... They are happy because they have been freed from years of suffering and finally tasted the sweetness of freedom.

it is written, "He will save His people from their sins." God wanted to quickly convey a message to everyone—a message of reassurance, a message of joy—that the time has come for you to rest from your troubles, to find salvation from the bitterness of your sins that have darkened your life, and to be freed from their bondage.

Today's invitation is for reflection: Do I appreciate, understand, and live with the impact of this word in my life? Have I experienced and tasted freedom, or am I still lost?

If you are still lost, don't worry. If you realize that you need help, you will find support quickly. All you have to do is open your heart, trust, and rest.
