As we prepare our hearts for a deeper understanding of Christ's love for us, I am ever mindful of God's sacrifice. His atonement for our sins, his humble, personal sacrifice that we remember at this time of the year. A chance to reflect on our own lives and make necessary adjustments. A New Year for Christians, if you will.
Our slate is clean, our sins are washed away, because of the price he paid while we were yet sinners. "Father forgive them for they know not what they do." Hardly the words you or I would speak, with less than being nailed to a cross for something we did not do.
"Greater love hath no man than to lay down his life for his friends."John 3:16 " For God SO loved the world, that he gave his ONLY begotten son, that whosoever believed on him should NOT perish but have eternal life".
Love you and I can only imagine!
