“Jesus gave his life for our sins, just as God our Father planned, in order to rescue us from this evil world in which we live.” - Galatians 1:4 (NLT)
Hey Lightgliders!
The three goals of a Lightglider are Respect, Rescue, and Restore. I want to take a moment to talk about Rescue. As Lightgliders, we have the awesome responsibility of going on Yonders missions to rescue the Gliddles from danger. We put on armor, glide into the Yonders, and free them from the toxic blight and the control of the Machines. Rescuing others from dangerous situations requires courage and strength of character. Remember that!
Did you know that God is a rescuer? He stopped at nothing to rescue us!
You, me, and everyone on earth need to be rescued from sin and death. When we sin, we miss the mark of God’s standard of goodness and we contribute to the world’s brokenness. So God the Father sent Jesus His Son to earth to rescue us. Through his life, death, and resurrection, Jesus makes a way for us to be reconciled to God and to experience His love forever.
This is the greatest rescue mission of all time!
Glide on!
