MESSAGE:
It is hard to imagine how our Jesus, holy and perfect in every way, came to live on earth amongst men. In our world full of sin and everything that opposes the light, he was birthed as a baby and lived his life among men. He became man so that he may take on man's sin on the cross. Without living as man, Jesus would not have been able to reconcile mankind to our Lord. And, Jesus did it all knowing he would have to suffer for us. It is amazing love. We must always learn to appreciate God for showing us His love even when we were sinners, Christ came to die for us, even while some are still living in sin now, His love keeps chasing after them.
When have you stood in wonder and awe From the power and beauty of God's creation? Wonder and Awe in God's presence is a gift of the Holy Spirit. Yet, it is a gift that even the youngest among us seem to have even if they do not recognize that it is from God. Watching a child learning to take his first step is amazing, and this is the amazing work of God. Look around you today and see God’s goodness and mercy and appreciate Him. The reality is, once we become aware of this world that God has created for us and the mysteries it holds, the more we stand in awe and wonder of God. Let us take the time today to appreciate and give thanks for all of God's gifts.
KEY POINT:
Appreciate God for every of His gifts to you. The breath of life in you is God’s gift to you, so go ahead and thank Him
PRAYER POINT:
Dear Father, thank you for sending your son, Jesus Christ, to live as a man on earth so that he may die for our sins. We know we do not deserve this atonement and it is only because of your mercy and grace that we have been liberated from sin and reconciled to you, O Lord. You are holy and precious to us. Help us to tell others about your good news. In Jesus Name, Amen.
