BORN TO SACRIFICED

Can we truly be merry that a child was born just to be brutally murdered by the very people he was born to save?

Okay, so who really murdered Jesus? Was it you? Was it me? Was it because of our imperfect state of condition?

It was mankind’s sin, including yours and mine that put Jesus on that horrible cross. What appeared to be the horrible fate of crucifixion proved to be the greatest gift that God could give to mankind. That is what can cause us to be merry because that horrible event gave us the greatest of all gifts because it brought us to the path to eternal salvation of our soul.

As we are soon to celebrate Thanksgiving Day, let us not forget that Jesus offered his life as our “Thanksgiving sacrifice.” And as Christmas approaches next month, we can be grateful that Jesus loved us enough to be born and became a sacrifice for us. This should cause us to rejoice!
