Daily Thoughts 1-4-2016 John 1:36

"and as he watched Jesus walk by, he said, "Behold, the Lamb of God." John‬ ‭1:36‬

Why did John call Jesus, "the lamb of God?"  A lamb in those days was used as a sin offering to God at His altar.  A lamb is peaceful as it is being lead to the slaughter. John was foretelling of what would happen to Jesus and why He came.   Are you peaceful in your daily trials?   I believe Jesus challenges us to respond as He did, peacefully and with blessed assurance.   Would you recognize the lamb of God if he walked by, or are you too busy fighting?

Dear Lord God, come live in me in such a way that I respond as You would.  Breath in me Your Holy Spirit.  May I see with Your eyes of faith and not my own.  I thank You Lord for the sin offering You made for me, You are the Lamb of God.  Bring peace into our families and may we always trust in You.  I pray for my brothers and sisters today, please strengthen them on their journey.  In Jesus name, Amen. 

Mary, Mother of Peace, pray for us.
