A Brush with Death Leads to Eternal Life
Christy’s world was turned upside down when a drunk driver careened into her lane, leaving her shaken but thankfully alive. As the night wore on, alone with her thoughts, she couldn’t shake the haunting question: What if I had died?
A Sleepless Night and a Lifelong Question
Tossing and turning, Christy’s mind raced with the uncertainty of her own mortality. It was then that she remembered the Bible her aunt had given her. She searched for it, and as she opened its pages, she stumbled upon Romans 3, where her aunt had inserted her name.
A Personalized Message from God
The words leapt off the page: “For [Christy] has sinned and fallen short of God’s glorious standard. Yet God, with undeserved kindness, presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin, so that [Christy] can be made right with God when she believes Jesus sacrificed His life for her.” Christy’s heart swelled with gratitude as she realized the magnitude of God’s gift. In that moment, she invited Him into her life, surrendering to His love and mercy.
