El Salvador Needs Jesus

Posted on November 29, 2024 by eig

I have four days left here in El Salvador after 43 years since I left. I have gone running a few times and I have thanked God for allowing me to be born in this country. But I thank Him He allowed me to live in the United States for over43 years. It is no wonder it is called the greatest country. I cannot be thankful enough for what He has allowed us and has given to us there. But above all, it is the gift of salvation in Jesus. That is the best gift ever. Without his gift, I would be nothing. I would be in despair, in hopelessness.

As I see people here, running around, driving in awful traffic, I prayed that God’s kingdom would come soon. We need his kingdom to be bring forth the restoration that we need. I can’t imagine that people think this is what we were meant to be or that this is the ideal place. Only God’s kingdom will bring about the peace, satisfaction, and the perfect environment where justice will reign. I read this morning Luke 14:25-35 where Jesus asserts that we need to calculate the cost of following Him. We must be willing to renounce all to be his follower. But many don’t want to follow him, they don’t have ears to listen. They are too busy (see Luke 14:15-24). Nevertheless, as I read Luke 15:1-10, we are called to help the lost Sheep come to Jesus. Until His kingdom comes, we are to continue sharing His Good News. It is our only hope.

I hope to write more in the following weeks about my return to my roots.

The cover of this book captures what El Salvador has gone through.
