The great sacrifice....
The other day I was watching The Passion of the Christ and it was so overwhelming. To think someone endured such pain and suffering so I can sin against him and his father. Why me....why would he do that for me? This is a question I ask myself often. Would I be able to offer up my son as a sacrifice and watch as he endured such pain and suffering? God is so good and for him to hurt while watching his son suffer says so much about his love for us. He is there when we suffer...when we rejoice. Just to know that someone was willing to lay their very life down so that I can go to heaven is a powerful thing. I have come so far in my faith and one thing that I still am amazed at is Easter and the meaning behind it. For me it is one of the most important holidays of the year. Celebrating not the death of Jesus but his rebirth and the fact that we can go to heaven for his sacrifices. I love God so much and I hope that I am living every day in ways that please him, but even when I disappoint him he loves me anyway. His lovely is truly, without a doubt unconditional so much so that he gave his only son so that we could join him in heaven some day. Just a powerful thought!
