The name \u201cJesus\u201d is the Greek version of the Hebrew name \u201cJoshua\u201d, which literally means \u201cthe Lord saves.\u201d The meaning of Jesu\u2019s name tells us who He is. He\u2019s the only one who can save us.<\/p>\n
As we come to the end of the year and reflect on the past year, many of us can see how we have tried to save ourselves from the challenges we face in our lives. We have tried to be our own saviours. Have you realised yet that it doesn\u2019t work?<\/p>\n
We can\u2019t be our own saviour. And that\u2019s why God sent his Son, Jesus, to save the world. To save you and me.<\/p>\n
Fundamentally, Uganda\u2019s problems are spiritual. We have allowed evil to flourish in Uganda at all levels, including our families. This is why we have made the past two years in the Church of Uganda the Year of the Family. The transformation of our country begins when individuals and families recognise they can\u2019t be their own saviour, when they invite Jesus to rescue them, and when they pursue righteousness and holiness in their families.<\/p>\n
This Christmas, I urge you to stop trying to be your own saviour and to surrender your life to Jesus as the only One who can save you.<\/p>\n
