My Savior
by
Barbara Philbrook
I'd like
to share with you the story of my precious Savior,
he came to die on a cross for me despite my sinful
behavior.
He came
from his home on high where he reigned in honor and
glory,
to be tested, disrespected, and not quite totally
rejected is his story.
But you
see the love which he and the father have for us is so
perfect and complete,
that what it would cost him didn't matter he came here so
Satan he'd defeat.
When
someone like you or I give up anything we have for the
benefit of others we love,
that's a generous gift but doesn't compare to our gift
from above.
To be
rejected and despised by those you gave up so much to
save,
to be ridiculed, tried, and crucified then put in a
borrowed grave.
Especially
for souls that are unworthy and totally filled with sin,
this is a fact that our incompetent brains can't
comprehend till the Holy Spirit comes in.
After
Jesus died on the cross and rose again on the third day,
he said he had to go home to the Lord but sent the
Holy Spirit to stay.
Now Jesus
is there making us mansions in which we are to dwell,
and all he'd like from us is acceptance of him and
sharing his story as well.
So if
while glancing on these verses an interest has been
stirred,
just pick up a Bible and read the Gospels it's the most
beautiful story ever heard!
