>[Zechariah prophesied concerning John,] "You, my child, will be
>called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before
>the Lord to prepare the way for him, to give his people the
>knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,
>because of the tender mercy of our God."
>
>     --Luke 1:76-78
>       New International Version

>THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...
>    Where does salvation come from?  Does it come from our sense
>that something is desperately wrong and we need to change and
>make it better?  Does it come from casting things in a more
>positive light so we don't become discouraged and quit?  Does
>it come from a lucky break?  Does it come because we are
>scrupulously righteous and deserve it come our way?  Does it
>come from rigorously obeying everything in the law?  No!
>Salvation and forgiveness come from one source, "the tender
>mercy of our God."
>
>
>MY PRAYER...
>    I confess, Father, that at times I've tried to earn my
>salvation.  At other times, I have taken it for granted and
>trampled on your mercy and grace.  Today, Father, I want to
>live for you: not to be saved or gain salvation, but to please
>you and reflect your character and nature.  Your mercy and
>grace have redeemed many people from the worthless way of
>living that I see so many others trapped in. Thank you for your
>salvation, but please help me to live in a way that shows the
>joy of that salvation in all I say, think, and do.  Through
>Jesus I pray.  Amen.
