Salvation appreciation

It is good to remember the fate from which Jesus saved us. What would your life look like without the grace of Christ? We lose the sense of relief, joy and resolve that we first experienced in Christ. The less we appreciate what he has done for us, the less we will be motivated to do for others. Peter reminds us of the magnitude of our salvation in 1Peter 1:1-12. Then he reminds us that this great salvation should result in sincere and fervent love for others (1Pe 1:22). Lord, restore to me the joy of my salvation and let your love flow through me to those around me.
