Getting what you deserve Thank God We didn't


What if God gave each of us what we really deserved, I can't speak for you but  the most I would get is death for you see the price of sin is death.  So thank God that I didn't get what I deserve! The good news in Grace and Mercy pay the price for you and I . Because justice demanded our lives, Jesus stood and spoke saying grace and mercy which is I already paid for their sins with my life.Do you really want what you deserve? Maybe you should first find out what you really deserve. People clamoring to get what they deserve are really in the dark. God is the judge and He declares that we have all fallen short
 none of us deserves good. But the wonderful news is that God loves us so much that He is not giving us what we deserve. But it doesn't stop there. It gets better. Believers are actually going to receive what Jesus deserves!  Jesus took what we deserved punishment (death). And now, because of
His great love, offers us what He deserves  freely as a gift of love. How can you not respond to Someone like that!


PSALM 103:8-10 NIV
8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger,
abounding in love.
9 He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger
forever;
10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us
according to our iniquities (Psalm 103:8-10).
