The ultimate sacrifice
GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN (John 15:13) Let’s say you’re in Gethsemane. The Atonement is up to you. How would you have felt that night Knowing such a debt is due? Would you have felt lonely? Would you have been afraid? Could you have persevered As the price for sin was paid? With courage and with bravery, With brotherly love so great, The Only Begotten Son of God Accepted His tragic fate. He probably was lonely. He probably wanted to flee. But He stayed and did it all Because of love for you and me. We were His true motivation. We were His purpose there, As the Savior of the World Proved to people everywhere They were worthy of a sacrifice We can barely comprehend; Jesus showed us true compassion Laying His life down for His friends. — by Bonnie Lake Bloomfield,
