Give Thanks Always!
He is fully human. He is fully God. He embraces the spirit, as the three live in each other. This is a Savior who through the Trinity climbs into our lives and makes beauty out of our mess… out of our pain… out of our sin. This is a God who can take the ugliest, most evil, torture device ever invented and use it to save us. My God, out of a deep unwavering love for us, not only used the cross to reconcile our sin but he turned it into an instrument of beauty. An emblem we use to proclaim our love for him. He takes our brokenness, no matter how tragic, and turns it around to bring good to our lives. As our Savior hung on the cross his cry was “My God why have you forsaken me?”. The pain was so intense that he could not feel the love of his father. There are times in our lives when the pain is so intense that we can not feel his love. But we have a God who climbs into that pain… because he loves us that much. There is nothing you can do that will make God love you less. Out of his love he will take the worst part of you and make it good. Out of the pain, out of the sin, out of the brokenness he will make beauty. No matter your circumstance GIVE THANKS! He is using it for good!
1 Chronicles 16:34
I Love You!
