For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. … For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16).
Happy Easter! What a very special time of year to receive an extra special gift. Despite the reasoning, when you look back on your life what is the best gift you can ever remember receiving? As you think about this present, begin comparing this to the gift that our unconditionally loving father has given us. I bet the gift that your family member or friend gave you isn’t even comparing to the love that you have begun to feel from his ultimate sacrifice.
So, as you enjoy this very important holiday, take the time to sit down and think about what we have all been given and remember that this was no mistake. Jesus was sent to save the world and that is what he will continue to do.
