II Corinthians 8:9
For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet
for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. What
is grace? Grace is undeserved favor. Do we deserve God’s love? No! But we are
grateful that God gives His grace to us! God loved us and sent His dear Son,
Jesus down to earth to die for us. Jesus, who had all the riches in heaven,
laid all of it aside and came down to live a lowly life. Jesus never owned
land; Jesus never had a house; Jesus never owned a horse or a farm. Jesus had
nothing but the clothes on his back. So why did He give us so much? So that we
might have so much! He gave up heaven to die for us, so that we might gain
heaven. Like our verse says, Jesus became poor so that we might become rich.
Thank you Jesus for loving us!
