Romans 5:8: But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Welcome back to another inspirational moment from historical Christian romance novels.

Do you struggle with wrapping your mind around all that Christ did on the cross for you? Has anyone every loved you as much as he does? While you were still His enemy and spoke out against Him, He died to save you from the pit of hell.

Not only did Christ suffer the cross to save you, but He offers you healing. Within in His arms we find refuge, strength, and peace.

In the novel To Tame a Cowboy Brody realizes he needs God before he could have Savannah.

He wouldn't be able to love her the way she deserved until he first found peace and healing in the One who was waiting patiently for him. (p. 295 To Tame a Cowboy by Jody Hedlund)

I love how Jody wove this message into the story. God patiently waits for you while He relentlessly pursues you.

I will leave you with this final thought: Salvation brings healing to the heart and soul. It is a free

gift from God.
