#75  RECONCILER   "Now all these things are from God, who RECONCILED us to Himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of RECONCILIATION, namely, that God was in Christ RECONCILING the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of RECONCILIATION." 2 Corinthians 5:18-19

"But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in what while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.  Much more, then, having been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.  For if while we were enemies, we were RECONCILED to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been RECONCILED, we shall be saved by His life.  And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ through whom we have now received the RECONCILIATION. " Romans 5:8-11

"And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, yet He has now RECONCILED you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach."   Colossians 1:21

Jesus,  You are my RECONCILER!  You are the One who restored my relationship of peace with You!  You made a way for me to know You!  Even though I was not seeking You - You took on my sin and made a way for me to be holy and blameless before You - because You paid my debt.   I have no guilt or shame as I stand before You because You RECONCILED me to You!    THANK YOU God for making a way for me.  You didn't wait for me to ask You for forgiveness - You forgave me while I was in my sin.   On this Thanksgiving Day - I am most THANKFUL that I know You now and will be with You for all eternity - because You RECONCILED me to You!   Jesus, THANK YOU for being my RECONCILER!!
