Good morning! How are we faithing today after a long weekend? Sacrifice. Many do that for others, police, fire, ems, soldiers, doctors and nurses to name a few. The ultimate sacrifice is when one lays his life down for another. Jesus did just that for you and every person you and I encounter. No distinction of personalities or culture or race. He laid his life down for the world. It is just so huge to try to understand this sacrifice but we get a taste when a soldier, a fire fighter, a police officer etc gives all. Those humans go where smart people leave to save the ones who couldn't. As hard as this is for those left, it is an honorable departure and we thank God above they are willing to make that sacrifice for us. Pray today for those men and women who make the ultimate giving sacrifice.
Isaiah 53:5
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
NKJV
Romans 5:6
For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
NAS
2 Corinthians 5:21
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
NAS
Remember Sparky's family today...remember Bud Perry's family...
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your sacrifice for our sins. Lord we try to honor you by our lives but we are weak. We ask for strength, courage and a mind set on the things of you. Bless those in mourning and those who's heart is breaking. Let us speak or not speak so that we cause healing and not pain. Touch the families of these honorable men and women, in Jesus name, amen
