Faith

When I stop to think about the fact that God, the Creator of the entire universe, actually humbled Himself to become like us and walk with us on the earth, it’s hard to even get my head around it.
His humility is staggering.
The Creator of everything that we see (and even the stuff that we have yet to see) came as a man, took on the limits of time and space, and willingly laid down His life so that we could live with Him forever. Amazing.
His love is immeasurable.
All at once I am aware that God cared enough about me that He would “walk in my shoes” so that I would know that He was acquainted with my real-life struggle and pain and joy.
His sacrifice is complete.
And when I realize that Jesus already knew the road that He would walk would end at the cross of Calvary—that He would be betrayed, beaten, ridiculed, humiliated and eventually crucified by those that He made, loved and had come to save—I realize my own need of the Savior.
Jesus walked on earth so that those of us who would receive Him and believe in His name would be given the right to be called children of God. Now that is a priceless gift.
