OzThoughts - Tuesday
Susan Lehmann
told of events in his life asking the question "Who is he?" and then
answering "Tis the Lord, the King of
Glory!" Today, we can think about the
reason for his coming.
Jesus really answers that himself in a simple story
"Look at it this way. If someone has a
hundred sheep and one of them wanders off, doesn't he leave the ninety-nine
and
go after the one? And if he finds it, doesn't he make far more over it than
over the ninety-nine who stay put? Your Father in heaven feels the same way.
He
doesn't want to lose even one of these simple believers. (Matthew 18: 12 -14
The Message).
"Every one
matters" is the way, I would sum that up. Everyone matters to Jesus!

Jesus came down my ransom to be;
O it was wonderful love!
For out of the Father's hear he came,
To die for me on a cross of shame,
And from sin's bondage to reclaim;
O it was wonderful love!
Chorus
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful love,
Coming to me from Heaven above,
Filling me, thrilling me through and through;
O it was wonderful love!
Clear to faith's
vision the cross reveals
Beautiful actions of love;
And all that by grace e'en I may be
When saved, to serve him eternally.
He came, he died, for your and me;
O it was wonderful love!
His death's a claim, his love has a plea;
O it is wonderful love!
Ungrateful was I to slight thy call,
But, Lord, now I come, before thee fall,
I give myself, I give up all,
All for that wonderful love.
