they called Him

God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

- 2 Corinthians 5:21

 

I love stories, maybe that is why I write the way I do, so that people read these daily thoughts as a story.

Here is a story that I heard, that I really like:

The Greatest Man in History… Jesus; Had no servants, yet they called Him Master. Had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He did not live in a castle, yet they called Him Lord, He ruled no nations, yet they called Him King, He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today (Lyle C Rollings III, 2008).

The Greatest Man in History.

What a concept, that our Lord and Savior was once every bit as human as you and I.

And He died for us, so that we could be like Him.

Wow.
