I am saved God promises me that I have been forgiven of all my sins past,present and future.My hope is in him who saved me from all my wrongs,why did he save me?I am nothing special,why did he open my eyes?why does he love me?why would he want to use me?My little human brain has a difficult time trying to figure it all out,but there lies the beauty of God's plan.He is not dependant on my understanding at all,yes he wants us all to be saved but saved to what?He doesn't just save me and then move on to the next unworthy fella no he knows I am going to try on my own power and mess up and get it wrong.Jesus made a way for me to come to the Father so I am accepted because of what Jesus did by taking on God's wrath in my place He gives me the Holy Spirit to live inside me and help me so I can have a personal relationship.I am saved from my old selfish,lying proud self.Iam saved from God's wrath when all will be judged.Iam saved for my true glorious home where I will forever worship our Creator.I was created for this very purpose to bring love honor and glory to our one true God=D

Elizabeth,This old hymn runs thru my mind as I read your post:

1. I've found a Friend who is all to me,
His love is ever true;
I love to tell how He lifted me
And what His grace can do for you.

2. He saves me from every sin and harm,
Secures my soul each day;
I'm leaning strong on His mighty arm;
I know He'll guide me all the way.

3. When poor and needy and all alone,
In love He said to me,
"Come unto Me and I'll lead you home,
To live with Me eternally."

Chorus:
Saved by His pow'r divine,
Saved to new life sublime!
Life now is sweet and my joy is complete,
For I'm saved, saved, saved!
