Creation & Redemption

From the beginning God had a plan to send Jesus to die for you.

The same hand that placed stars in the sky and trees in the ground would eventually be pierced on your behalf. His blood for yours.

It's simple. It's profound.

From beginning to end, from creation until the end of time, from Adam to you; one name, one God-man: Jesus Christ.

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5: 6-8





God bless you today, my friend. Thanks for stopping by.

    Hi! I hopped over from Candace's blog to check you out! She has such a nice post about you!

    I've enjoyed reading your blog. I got a big kick out of the Alternative Christmas Letter. Your family picture is a hoot!

    Stop by and visit me sometime...oh, and would you please pray for my husband, Bill? He's having back surgery tomorrow.

    Thanks, and God bless you :o)
