God’s special gift.
Today we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As we spend time with family and friends, let us not forget the greatest love story ever told. “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
Note 2 self: In other words, God loved us some much that He sent His only Son on a suicide mission so that we might have an opportunity at eternal life with Him. God took on human form and suffered a shameful and painful death for all of humanity. Who are you willing to die for? Perhaps you would give your life for your children, parents, dear friends and possibly other relatives whom you love. But, would you give your life for the kid who bullied you in the 5th grade or the mass murderer who recently killed those innocent people in the Jewish synagogue in Pennsylvania? I would think NO! Without a doubt, God loves us, and yes – Jesus’ sacrifice for us is the greatest love story ever told.
Have a Merry Christmas everyone!
Blessings to you all, my friends.
