The Greatest Gift of God

Jesus Is The Greateast Gift We Have From God:.

John 3 : 16.

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"

Jesus Christ is indeed considered God's greatest gift to mankind, a central belief based on the idea that through His life, death, and resurrection, humanity is offered salvation and eternal life.

The love of Jesus we celebrate at Christmastime is a sacrificial love. He didn’t just give Himself sacrificially on the cross. Every day of His life was another day given up for our sakes.

Every tear, pang of hunger, and wound He suffered throughout His life He experienced not because He had to, but because He chose to out of love for us. Imagine leaving the perfection of heaven to come to earth. Imagine leaving an unhindered, face-to-face connection with the heavenly Father and becoming an infant. Imagine allowing a mother and father to take care of you when you are God Himself whose very existence has never known a beginning.

May we take time every day to let sink in the simple truth that God became man entirely for our sakes. God Himself, who has no beginning, no limit, no weakness, and deserves no pain, took on flesh in pursuit of a deeper, richer, and entirely restored relationship with you and me.

In this season of celebration, may we take time to remember the loving, life-giving sacrifice of the King we worship.

May we centre our hearts and lives around Him.

May we give Him the adoration and praise He deserves and may this Christmas season change our lives forever as we respond to the continual pursuit of our loving God by offering Him our hearts in return in Jesus mighty name.
