COMPELLED
2 Corinthians 5:14-15
For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died; and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.
Personal challenge
So, what are we compelled to do because of the love of Jesus? We are compelled to stop living our lives just for ourselves and to live them for God and our neighbor. Why? Because we embrace that Jesus died for us, and not just for those of us who profess Him as our Lord and Savior, but He died for all of mankind. Because of this, we are compelled to die to ourselves and to live for others. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
