The Father's heart for us!
We could never do anything to earn what He did for us on the cross. And what He does for us each and every moment while He sits in Heaven and in our Hearts:)
He chose to do so simply because It was His will to give us life and for us to live it abundantly!
He died for us
He chose us
He loves us
He likes us
He knew us
He knows us
He wanted us
He justifies us
He appoints us
He called us
He works all things together for our good:)
Christ arrives right on time to make this happen. He didn't, and doesn't, wait for us to get ready.
He presented himself for this sacrificial death when we were far too weak and rebellious to do anything to get ourselves ready. And even if we hadn't been so weak, we wouldn't have known what to do anyway. We can understand someone dying for a person worth dying for, and we can understand how someone good and noble could inspire us to selfless sacrifice. But God put his love on the line for us by offering his Son in sacrificial death while we were of no use whatever to him. (Romans 5:6-8 MSG)
