How do you think of Jesus? The way that you view somebody can have a huge impact on how you feel about them and how you react to them. When we think of Jesus, we should remember that he was a real man who suffered horribly on the cross for YOU! Take some time to think about the crucifixion. Jesus could have called on angels to save him at any point while he was being tortured, but he didn't. He thought of your face each time he was whipped or beaten and he loved you so much that he thought you were worth each blow. In fact, Jesus knew every bad thing you would ever do and every time you would sin and he still loved you more than anybody else could. The thing about the crucifixion is that Jesus died so that you could be saved and spend eternity in Heaven with him but he also died so that you can have a personal relationship with him. Once you have a personal relationship with Jesus, it will change your life and you will never be the same! It's better than anything this world has to offer! 1 John 4:9-10 tells us that God showed us His love by sending Jesus to die so that we may live. Jesus became an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Now atoning means "to make ammends" so basically when Jesus died, he took care of everything we would ever do wrong. It's like getting a stain on a white T-shirt and then using bleach to take away the stain. Jesus took away all of our stains and made us clean again. Think about how much Jesus really loves YOU and make it something personal in your life!
