Wow, what a busy week it's been. Our Church has had Vacation Bible School all week. The topic was Passport to the Promised Land, each night we took a trip to another city in Israel and learned it's significance in Jesus life.
Day one: Bethlehem, we learned about the birth of Jesus
Day two: Nazareth, we learned about Jesus boyhood, growing up and working in the carpenter shop, his first trip to Jerusalem and the Temple where he stayed talking with the teachers even after his family headed home
Day Three: The Sea of Galilee, we learned about the start of Jesus ministry and the calling of his disciples
Day Four: Capernaum, we learned about one of Jesus miracles, where he raised a little girl from the dead
Day Five: Calvary, today we learned about Jesus death on the cross and what it means for you and me.
To some this might be just an interesting story, to me it is a truth that changed my life
Jesus was born, not like anyone else for he was born of a virgin. He had an ordinary childhood, but it to was not like anyone else's childhood for he was perfect and never disobeyed. His ministry was unlike anything else, he healed the sick, and raised the dead.
But beyond that his death is amazing... he did no wrong yet he was willing to died a cruel death for my sins, and after he died he didn't stay dead he rose the third day. That is the greatest miracle of them all.
