The crown of thorns,
the nail scarred hands.
The bloody stripes and His bleeding side.
His death on Calvary,
this precious sacrifice was...
All for me, all for me,
His matchless love,
God's divine plan.
All for me, all for me,
all for me.
As we approach Good Friday, let us meditate on how much God loves us. Love is an action. If it is only words, it counts for nothing. God demonstrated His love for us in an extravagant way – He gave us His all. Yes, His all means His most precious, most valuable, most cherished Son, Jesus Christ. I started to understand a little more about fatherly love since I became a father many years ago. It is amazing to know that God painfully gave up His Son just for us, dying on the cross for our sins, took on himself the shame and punishment for us. This is sacrifice in its ultimate form. He gave His all for us in order that we may have His gift of salvation, saved from eternal death and enter eternal life. This is love, God's love for us. Contrary to the popular mindset of “I want it all”, God is telling you today.... I gave it ALL for you.
