“It is he who remembered us in our low estate, for his steadfast love endures forever[.]” -Psalm 136:23

This line from a song of worship and preparation is the Gospel foreshadowed. God has remembered us in our low estate, in our brokenness and sinful disobedience. In our disregard for him, and out of his steadfast love for us, he has given of himself to save us.

In Christ, we are no longer left in the pit; we possess new life, wear his righteousness, and anticipate real life with him for eternity. What a great miracle he has worked to bring us to himself! The ones incapable of living up to the standard are rescued, given a perfect record, and empowered to live the adventurous life in Christ.

Rejoice at this announcement of your salvation, your rescue from the low estate of being far from God. Share the news of his grace, and live the adventure he has for you.
