—Hebrews 9:11-14
by: Ashea West.
Imagine having to find an unblemished calf to sacrifice for the sins you committed—and then, after finding the perfect sacrifice, on the way to the priest, the calf running away. Now you cannot have your sins forgiven because you do not have a sacrifice. I am frustrated just thinking about this, but I am glad this is not my reality. It gives me a greater appreciation for what Christ did when He offered himself as the ultimate sacrifice. Do not take for granted that you can talk to the High Priest (Jesus) whenever you need to without having to find any sacrifice—much less a perfect one.
