His Cost, Our Gain!

I was reading my devotional this morning and it pointed out that Christ loat more than His life when He came to Earth to die for us. If you think about it, He was in all of God's glory siting at His right hand when he suddenly is in a womb and wakes up in a hay trough. That is a far cry from where He was at. He was also in a place where God is being praised daily to where He is on Earth where He is called names and insulted, even by His own earthly brothers.

In Romans 8: 31, it is written, "What then shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?" Paul goes on to say in the next few verses that the Lord is always there and that Christ is interceding for us all the time at the right hand of God. In verse 39, he says, "neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to sepereate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Please remember that Christ gave us life and is always standing by our side day or night.

The question that is asked of us is are we living for the Lord in our lives?
