Easter 2016 reflections: No Greater Love

Easter 2016 reflections: No Greater Love by ric Gustafson


Today's bible reading is John 15: 1-13. During the night that Jesus was betrayed, he told his disciples something very important. He told them that there is no greater love than to lay down one's life for his friends. He set the ultimate example of self sacrifice by going to the cross. Jesus died in our place and proved his love for us. He made it possible for us to be forgiven of our sins and to have a home in heaven.
In today's bible reading, Jesus says that he is the vine and we are the branches. If we remain in the vine, we will produce much fruit. If not, we will be gathered into a pile and burned.
Thank you Jesus for what you did for me on the cross.
