Labor of Love

As we head into the Labor Day holiday weekend... let's consider the ultimate labor of love that Jesus demonstrated for us...

Jesus took 30 years to prepare Himself for His ministry. He then worked tirelessly for 3 1/2 years. The only days off He took were the Sabbath days. He traveled anywhere and everywhere to reach those that needed to hear the message that Jesus is the Messiah. From the Synagogue to the mountainous terrain, from the waterside chats the hills filled with those that had gathered. Jesus shared His love.

The ultimate sacrifice was the shedding of His own blood as He died on the cross so that you and I might have life.... but it didn't end on the cross, He arose three days later to complete ultimate gift of life... that is that we might have eternal life with Him.

Today, He intercedes for us daily, minute by minute He is there on our behalf talking to the Father.

So when you are having "one of those days" or you are celebrated the "holidays" remember that you have a Savior who loves you and gave you the ultimate labor of love!
