Ephesians 2:8-9 (NLT) "God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it."

God Bless You,

Good deeds should always be a big part of our Christian walk. Helping others should be on our priority list on a daily basis; we should not wait for crisis or tragedy to show up at our door to go out there and help. Just as Jesus helped those around him, if we are to follow his footsteps, we need to do the same. Fulfilling his little one's needs could many times be way more spiritually satisfying than fulfilling our own. With this in mind we also have to remember that no exceeding number of good deeds will ever earn us our Salvation!! We could do good to others day in and day out and that is all wonderful but IT WILL NOT EARN US OUR SALVATION!! Salvation is a GIFT from God for those that BELIEVE and ACCEPT him in their hearts as their LORD & SAVIOR!! Accept this priceless, awesome, beautiful gift today and as a big Thank You, do good to others whether they deserve it or not...did we deserve the gift of Salvation?
