The cross is better than any black Friday deal you can think of. On that
black Friday Jesus willingly gave His life to pay for all the sins of
humanity. The cross is not a black Friday lightning deal or a stand in a
line to get a fantastic price on big-screen TV deal. The cross deal is
not limited by human constraints. It is the price already paid to ransom
us from a lifetime of sin and guilt! It is the power of God to save!
The love of God displayed! The depth of His power and care shown to His
creation. He brings us back to the garden relationship that Adam and Eve
had with Him before the great fall of man. He restores and heals and
extends His scepter of mercy to His children to come and sit at His
table and dine! Wow! It is far better than Amazon or Walmart, more
extravagant than Neiman Marcus! The cross opens the way to the greatest
treasure the World has ever known. To know and experience His love on
this Thanksgiving day is what I live for. So if you ask me what I am
thankful for today, I think you know how I will answer! Happy
Thanksgiving everyone!
