My devotion today was the beginning of Jesus Christ's journey to Jerusalem and the cross. He was going to Jerusalem knowing full well He would die on the cross...for us!
I realized I have trouble getting through each day without thinking about myself: what I want to eat, what I want to say, what I want to do. Then I think of Jesus...doing what He must because of all the things I want, all the things I say, all the things I do that are sinful.
God is so holy and wonderful, and because He is holy He cannot look upon my sins. So, what does He do? He loves all of us imperfect humans so much that He sends His own Son to earth to die on the cross for all of our "I wants," selfishness, vengefulness, and our lack of concern for others. Because of Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross, we can now be considered holy and be with God!
How wonderful is our God to prepare a way for us to return to Him!
