The other
Sunday during the morning service at church, a visiting Pastor from Chicago
gave a sermon about God´s covenant with us. The way he spoke as he told the
story brought tears to my eyes and chills up my spine, especially the moment
that he talked about the Crucifixion. All I thought of was, so much love in
such a painful act and he did it for me. In the Pastor´s words: “You know why He did
not hop off the cross and save Himself, after all He was the son of God and He
had performed so many miracles prior to that moment? It would only make sense
for Him to come off of that cross and destroy all the people around. But no! He
did not do that, simply because He saw your face in the future. He obeyed the
covenant He had with The Father and died so that you and I could have eternal
life.”
So much love.
So much care
for others.
No
selfishness.
In all of God´s
greatness I am just a speck of sand, such a tiny speck that can be swallowed up
by the mass of different paths in this life. So much love is shed onto me every
day when I open my eyes and take in a breath of the new day with new
opportunities to appreciate each moment and be grateful.
There are
days when He is walking beside me and there are other days when He is carrying
me in His loving arms.
How great Thou
art!
How great Thou
art!
