When the Father required a spotless sacrifice for the redemption of humanity, Jesus did not cling to His rights. Rather, He relinquished the glory of His heavenly existence in order to become a man. He was born in a cattle shed; he slept in a feeding trough. His life was spent preparing for the day when He would suffer an excruciating execution. We are tempted to hold tightly to things God has given us. We say, I would be willing to give up anything God asked of me, but I just dont think He would ask me to give anything up! The Father asked His Son to make radical adjustments in His life. Can we not expect that He will ask us to sacrifice privileges and comforts as well?
