The Saviour

I did this post recently called, The Saviour, Our Saviour, My Saviour.

The lauching verse from the Bible was
The Saviour--yes, the Messiah, the Lord--has been born tonight in Bethlehem!
Luke 2:11 (TLB)

Here is a bit more.

This verse reminds me of what God did to meet your need and mine
—how God saw the condition of planet Earth and did not look away.
But he looked at our sinfulness and fallenness, and he knew that we needed a Saviour, so he sent one.

My favourite all time Christmas story is one:

“If our greatest need had been information, God would have sent an educator.
If our greatest need had been technology, God would have sent a scientist.
If our greatest need had been money, God would have sent us an economist.
If our greatest need had been pleasure, God would have sent us an entertainer.
“But our greatest,” and “my greatest need was for forgiveness.
So God sent a Saviour.”

At Christmas we’re reminded that God sent the best He had for our most pressing need, and He met that need.
And He had you in mind when he commissioned his only son to take on human flesh.

He had you in mind.
He had me in mind.

Awesome!!!
