"By this we know love, that He laid down His life for us." 1 John 3:16
With the upcoming Easter season, we are hearing a lot about the reason for it. We all know what that reason is too, but, did you know that that reason is especially personalized towards you?
Now yes, Jesus died for all of us, but, with His love that He had in His heart, He laid down His life with you in mind. He had you in mind, He knew who you were even though you were not even born yet, and He died not just to show you His love, but He died to know you.
Think about that a minute, think about how much faith that He has put in your life that He laid down His life for it. There must me something pretty great you are going to do, so incredibly amazing, that He knows about and He wants you to show to the world.
So in our lives, when we lose hope and we don't see which way that our lives could take us, I want you to remember this, that even though you don't see a direct path right now, even though you don't really know which way your life is going to turn or what you are going to accomplish in the future, Jesus knows, and He has so much faith that you can make an impact in this world, that you can go out and show the world something that they have never seen before, and let your light shine before them, that He died so that you can go out and use those gifts. He laid down His life so that you could go out and live yours.
So today, I want you to keep this in mind, and not just today either, but everyday. Go out and live the life that Jesus saw you living way before you were even born, use those gifts that He gave you, and know that He has faith in your life.
