Hi Everyone :)
I hope you have an amazing Easter with all of your families and just take this time to remember all of the great things that God has done for us!
Anyways, the one part of the devotional that stood out to me most was how John answers the question, "Who is Jesus". We all get so caught up in everything else in our lives, that we forget to look past everything that is happening and remember who is behind it all. My favorite quote was "...it is not as important as Jesus." and that is so true! NOTHING is as important as Jesus and the way he died for our sins, but we take knowing Him and the gospel for granted when we start to get wrapped up in our own lives and we make other things our center, besides the most important thing in the world!
The second thing that stood out to me was how away meant to carry off. He doesn't just magically make our sins disappear, He died on the cross for them and carries them with Him everyday. I think that visual really helps me understand what a burden that Jesus did for us so that we could be free! It's just so cool to think about all of this and know that God knew all of the stupid things we were going to do, and he sent down His one and only son to take care of it for us.
Well have a good day everyone! God bless :)
