Nothing but sand and dust....

The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. —John 1:14

When my kids were young, I thought they would be impressed with what few accomplishments I may have had—that they would read my books and be impressed by my speaking engagements. But then I discovered that they hadn’t read any of my books and had no idea where I had been on a speaking gig. When my oldest son finally read one of my books, he told me that the only reason he read it was so that I would stop telling people that my children have never read my books!

Let’s face it—for the most part, kids are not impressed with our accomplishments. So the only way to bridge the gap is to meet them where they are, to get into their world—like getting into a game of Chutes and Ladders or playing catch in the backyard.

Jesus did this with us. John said of Jesus, “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory” (John 1:14). In other words, He stooped down to our level when He came to this earth, which led to His greatest accomplishment of all: bridging the gap between His world and ours once and for all. Only then could we begin to understand how worthy He is of our utmost adoration and praise! —Joe Stowell

Our Lord is worthy all our days
Of all our love and highest praise;
He died to take our sin and shame—
Oh, bless the Savior’s holy name! —Egner

Jesus bridged the gap between the infinite God and finite man.

Just yesterday, was hanging out with Jocelyn and while we were talking.. I shared with her what i wrote yesterday. And both of us were like, "God is so Awesome.... And coool =)"

And at one point in time, both of us were thinking about the same thing.

We are nothing, but sand and dust.

Er, and yes, both of us squeaked excitedly like two overgrowth girls in the middle of a cafe. Well its not the first time we did, so yaa, warning to all who wants to hang out with us in the future.

For those thinking that you are great coz of what you have done and accomplished, well, if its not for God, its nothing.

Yet, He is willing to die for us......
