Exodus 15:11 “Who is like You, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like You, glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders?
Deuteronomy 3:24 ‘O Lord God, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your mighty hand, for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do anything like Your works and Your mighty deeds?

Sometimes I wonder if we are too familiar with the way we speak to and/or about the Trinity. I know that things changed when Jesus died for our sins.
When He shed His most precious and completely Holy blood for us on the cross.
When He bridged the gap between mankind and God.
When Jesus made a way for us to enter into the holy of holies and approach the throne of the Most High God.
When He BECAME sin in our place.

But let’s go back to the beginning. Let’s go back to the 6th day of creation when mankind was created.
(Genesis 1:26-27 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.)

I think, of course, it was a joint decision. I believe mans body was fashioned, but before the breath of life was breathed into man I think God turned to Jesus and said, “Are you sure you want to do this? You know they are going to sin against Us, you know they are going to break Our hearts…they will seek after everything under the sun to satisfy that longing deep in their hearts. You know You will have to be born as one of them, live an uncomfortable life, be ridiculed by them, die a horrible death, be buried and resurrected, and then walk among them in Your glorified body to prove Who You are. He waited for Jesus’ answer and all of heaven stood holding their breath. Then came Jesus answer “I love them. I will do whatever it takes for the fleeting moments of joyous fellowship and communion. I wait anxiously for my beautiful, spotless bride and the day she comes to me in fine linen made ready for our union and the marriage supper.” There was a collective exhale as all of heaven breathed.

Thank you Jesus for loving us so much and wanting an intimate relationship with each of us.
