Welcome back to the podcast, everyone! After unexpected things forced me to skip the podcast for 2 weeks, I am very happy to be back with y'all and share what is on my heart this week!
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
John 15:13 KJV
If you've been in church any length of time, you have probably heard this scripture. I've always heard it applied to Jesus and His great love for us that led Him to lay down His life for us on the cross. However, after a recent study and discussion with my husband, I've started looking at this verse very differently.
Jesus was the dearest Friend to me and showed such great love toward me when He laid down His life for me and my sins. I want to repay Him in any way that I can. I want to be a friend to Jesus, and this verse tells me how I can do that. The greatest love that I can show to my Friend Jesus is to lay down my life for Him. Not necessarily in a physical sense, although it may come to that one day, but in my day to day life. I can lay down my life at His feet and allow Him to live through me and use me as a vessel and an instrument for His will.
I pray you enjoy this week's episode and that it encourages you in your relationship with God. I look forward to talking to y'all next week, Lord willing!
