nobody

On the day the most historic event for the world took place my thoughts are captivated by the words of this song “I’m just a nobody trying to tell everybody about somebody who can save anybody”. My name is of no consequence, my economic status unimportant, my physical appearance doesn’t matter, and my gender or race is also of no consequence. What is most important is the story of redemption that occurred more than 2000 yrs ago when loves sacrifice broke the bonds of a world encased in darkness that light may enter.

His coming was fore told, yet; nobody recognized Him when He appeared. To many He was just a ordinary man who did extraordinary things. Some saw in Him an undeniable power, humility, gentleness and approachability uncommon in man. Love poured forth from every fiber of His being; unconditional, accepting, forgiving love. There where no nobodies to Him, everyone was somebody special in His eyes and He loved them all; even those who hated Him because they knew not who He was or from where He came.

His earthly sojourn was short, yet; He loved those considered unlovable, touched many with healing hands, He reclaimed and restored loved ones caught in the grip of death to their grieving families. He walked peacefully among men, but; many desired Him harm. I’m the nobody for which he gave all, His blood reached down through many generation to cleanse me of my sins, His love covered a multitude of my faults; brought light to my darkness and released me from the grip of death which was my penalty to pay. He renewed a right spirit within me and gave me a heart of flesh.

He rose in my heart like He rose from the grave early that 1st day of the week with all power over sin and death in His hands and granted me new life in Him. If you are drowning in the darkness of this world, remember there is “Somebody who can save anybody” and His blood was shed for you, a NOBODY.

My revelation as I sit by the pool of grace
