While

Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Let's talk about while. While we were yet sinners. While we were at the club. While we were having sex. While we were smoking. While we were getting drunk. While we were fighting. While we were cheating. While we were lying. While we were rebellious, Christ was still thinking about us. Can you imagine showing someone so much love and they aren't even looking your way? That's how we treated God. God not only created us and woke us up every day in our sin. He sent His Son Who was willing to go, to die so that we may have a true chance at eternal life if we believe(Romans 10:9). 

Everyone has a "while" they can attest to regarding God's patient Love. I mean who else would sacrifice their own child for people who don't care about them or the child? Moreover, who would willingly die for people who mistreat Him every day? People who don't want to spend time with Him. People who would rather have one night stands(Sunday Only's) than a personal relationship. People who would only use Him when they need Him. People who was suppose to be His friend denying and betraying Him. People who treat others better than Him. Can you think of anyone else who can stand that kind of hurt not forgetting the ridicule & physical pain on The Cross? But God! God loved us so much that He knew Jesus Blood could cover all the wrong we can ever do. Jesus Blood replaces our sins. Jesus Blood that remains powerful! As we take this journey during Holy Week, remember your "while" that He died for so that you may live. #RoadToCalvary #While #HolyWeek #FF
