Jesus Christ, fully man and fully God, came down to Earth, lived a perfect, sinless life, and yet was pierced for our transgressions. He died on a cross so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus died for you, His love burned so brightly that He was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for a sliver of a chance that you would want a relationship with Him, and for you to be reconciled back to the Father, being able to receive the gift of eternal, perfect life.

Jesus is the only one who can save, the only one who can fill the God-shaped holes in our hearts, the only one who knows us better than ourselves or anyone else, the only one who lived a perfect life and took the punishment we deserved to take.

If you are looking for love, look to the one who loved you first.

If you are looking for purpose, look to the one who knit you in your mother's womb.

If you are looking to be chosen, look to the one who chose to die for you.

This is a story about a Man who saved my life and showed me what true love is all about, and it is available for you to experience too.

Thank you, Jesus, for your sacrifice. We remember all that you did for us this weekend with Good Friday, leading to Easter Sunday.
