For further study: 1 Peter 1:3 - 5
For parents and children: Help your children understand what a destination is. Ask them to choose one destination that they would want to visit. Tell them that Jesus made earth pearth his destination so that our final destination would be with him in the most wonderful destination
place ( new heaven and earth, where there will be no sin, sadness, or suffering) forever and ever.
"If Jesus hadn't been willing to make the earth his destination, we would have no hope whatsoever of the new heavens and the new earth being our final destination."
"Jesus did what he did not because of something special he saw in us, but because of something holy and pure that was inside him."
"In most gift-giving, there is something in the receiver of the gift that propels the giver... But there simply was nothing in us to propel such a radical choice, such a radical gift that the creator gave to the creatures who had turned their backs on him."
For the month of December, there will be daily posts based on Paul Tripp's Advent book Come Let Us Adore Him.
