Let’s read John 3:16-18 (the Message version)
“This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him.”
To “capsize” means to be overturned in the water. Author Federico Chini once said “It takes just one wave to capsize a boat, and one more to take it down.” The first WAVE that capsized your soul was the first SIN (read Genesis 3). The second WAVE that will make all capsized boats sink into eternal hell is the JUDGEMENT OF GOD (read Romans 2:1-5).
Can a man turn his capsized boat (soul) over on his own? NO. “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”(Matthew 19:26b).
All have sinned (capsized) and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). Have an unceasing belief in Jesus Christ - He will not only overturn your capsized soul that is bound to sink with just another wave, but also journey with you beyond the shores of eternity calming down any storms on the way...!!
“Naa Naavalo Kaalidumu - Naa Seva Jekonumu
Nadipinchu Naa Naava - Nadi Sandhramuna Deva
Nava Jeevana Margamuna - Naa Janma Thariyimpa..!”
“Step into my boat – I shall serve thee
Sail my boat on – from the middle of the sea
On my life’s new journey – unto eternity...!”
