There are no words which can express my gratitude. No words which can ask for a greater gift this Christmas season. He offered by grace a sacrifice I could not give. I received a gift I could never earn. Because God’s children are human beings... made of flesh and blood, the Son also became flesh and blood. For only as a human being could He die, and only by dying could He break the power of the devil, who had the power of death. Only in this way could He set free all who have lived their lives as slaves to the fear of dying. We also know that the Son did not come to help angels; He came to help the descendants of Abraham. Therefore, it was necessary for Him to be made in every respect like us, His brothers and sisters, so that He could be our merciful and faithful High Priest before God. Then He could offer a sacrifice that would take away the sins of the people. Since He himself has gone through suffering and testing, He is able to help us when we are being tested. Hebrews 2:14-18 NLT We are truly blessed when we daily reflect on all He has done for us. And now we KNOW we can call on Him when we are afraid and suffer, for He also lived and died a life far more intense than we will ever know. Word of God train me today... To not glide through this season without knowing it's true purpose. To spread the love You first gave by gifting us with salvation.
