He stooped for you and me

The cross experience that Jesus went through was not only the physical gruelsome torment.

Imagine this: God is holy and perfect. God hates sin. Yet He became the thing He abhors the most. He stooped to the level of His creation to redeem us. The struggle and sacrifice was beyond imagination. We will never be able to match that.

Yoon Chyi shared that in her preaching and it reminded me the beauty and bountifulness of His love.

The minimum we can do is to reciprocate to that big love. Going forward, we should become the thing our own flesh loathes the most, isn't it?

"If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me." -- Matthew 16:24
