gratitude for the gift of salvation

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.
