The
Precious Blood Of Christ
Since you call on a
Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as
foreigners here in reverent fear. For you know that it was not with perishable
things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life
handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ,
a lamb without blemish or defect. He was chosen before the creation of the
world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. Through him you
believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your
faith and hope are in God.
1
Peter 1:17-21
Sometimes we behave like
children. With open arms we receive God’s gifts through His many mercies, but
are we really thankful? Do we consider the price that was paid so we can live a
full life?
When
we understand the cost of our salvation,
we
learn to be truly thankful.
