The first part of Jeremiah’s message was “remember.” The second part was “realize.” Here, we see the third part is “return.” Because the heart of our Lord is so incredibly merciful and gracious, we don’t have to work our way back to Him or prove our sincerity. All we have to do is turn to Him in humility and say, “Lord, I need You.

By His grace and for His glory, when we opened up our hearts to Jesus, God placed us—weak and foolish that we are—in Christ. And because Christ fulfilled the “ifs,” we get the “thens,” leaving us nothing to do but say, “Yea and Amen!” If that sounds too good to be true, think of it this way.… Suppose I’m in Switzerland and I begin to crave a hamburger, fries, and a shake. The two dollars I have in my pocket will buy just that at Hot and Now Burgers in Medford, Oregon. Therefore, if I can get to Medford, then I will have a burger, fries, and a shake. So I call the airport and say, “Can you give me directions to Medford?” “What is your mode of transportation?” the official asks.

Genesis 39:11, 12 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within. And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out. “Flee youthful lusts,” said a wise Paul to a young Timothy (2 Timothy 2:22)—and that’s exactly what Joseph is doing. He doesn’t minister to Mrs. Potiphar. He doesn’t witness to her. He runs for his life.

We need to realize that Jesus Christ came to die for our sin and to pay the price for our iniquity. If He never does anything else in this life presently, that is more than enough to merit our loyalty, our affection, our devotion. If He never does another thing for me, if He never gives another blessing to me, I owe Him my life because of what He did on Calvary.
