We needed a surgeon ...



     
Peter Kreeft – “We needed a surgeon, and he came and reached into our wounds with bloody hands. He didn’t give us a placebo or a pill or good advice. He gave us himself.” 

      This quote reminds me that Jesus comes to meet our needs and not our 'wants!' In giving of himself, Jesus met every one of the desires and needs that we had (and will have). God could have given us the drugs to numb the pain, the pill to stop the hurting or even some helpful advice. Instead God sent us his Son - and in Jesus, we got all we ever needed.

      "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him." - 1 John 4:9
