Nathan, my fun-loving son, is not feeling well.
He doesn't have the energy so do anything but rest.
I miss his smiles.
Nathan loves to cuddle with Daddy.
The cuddles are nice but we wish he were not ill.
If only we could be his substitute....The fatherheart of God does that for us. Jesus laid down his deity, became a man, and the substitute for us.
”This is how God showed his love for us: God sent his only Son into the world so we might live through him. This is the kind of love we are talking about—not that we once upon a time loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to clear away our sins and the damage they've done to our relationship with God.”[1]
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”[2]
“And He [Jesus] Himself is the propitiation [substitute] for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.”[3]
