Woopsie! In the midst of the holiday hubbub, looks like I failed to post this on Monday so I’m posting it today.
The power of this truth still touches me deeply, even as I enjoy a lot of quality time with my own sons, home this week over Christmas break.
Acknowledging the indescribable price of our reconciliation with God the Father, who offered His only Son, and who then willingly sacrificed His life, not only unveils the depths of His love but also the extent of His holiness and the call to consecration.
During this especially sacred season of Christmas and Hanukkah intersect, I hope you’ll consider re-dedicating yourself as a holy temple as a demonstration of our true love for Christ.
