But You..Oh How I love Them!


1 John 2:20 “But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth.” (Some texts say “know all things”)

Lord Jesus, how I love the “but you”s in Your word!  Only by Your grace and mercy does this one refer to me and my family.  I praise You, Lord, especially at this time of Christmas.   YOU, the gift wrapped in the body of a helpless newborn baby, delivered into a human family to live with us as one of us for a season so You could show us how to live a sinless life while knowing all along that we, in our pathetic sinful state, would never be able to.  You knew from the very beginning that You would be the perfect sacrifice…the lamb without spot or blemish…to pay the price for not only my sin, but also for the sins of the whole of humanity: past, present, and future!
Hallelujah!  What a Savior!
