Christ In Me The Hope Of Glory!
God has literally shouted aloud all through the Bible that He is for all and loves all. In the form of Jesus, He made Himself available even to the lowest of class people so none may lose the blessed opportunity of approaching Him with confidence only in His love which is always class-free.
“Now when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they brought Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord (as it is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”), and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of the Lord, “A pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.””
Luke 2:22-24 (NKJV)
The earthly parents of Jesus, whom He chose to come into this world, were not from an elite or rich class and thus could only bring a pair of turtledoves instead of a lamb which only the rich could afford.
The law pertaining to this was….
‘And if she is not able to bring a lamb, then she may bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons—one as a burnt offering and the other as a sin offering. So the priest shall make atonement for her, and she will be clean.’ ” Leviticus 12:8 (NKJV).
Could the King of Kings not provide even a lamb for His parents to offer? Oh! Did He not associate Himself again with the poor and the downtrodden?
When the people of the world consider their material prosperity as a result of their spiritual piety, the Most Holy remained humble and was satisfied offering the offering of the poor.
No where can we find such a God Who is so good and so near.
Today or ever if you would feel that you are poor and needy and are being belittled by the so called ‘blessed and rich’, find comfort in this that God loves you as you are and His peace within you is the greatest sign of your richness and contentment which often even the so called ‘blessed and rich’ do not possess.
Christ in me the hope of glory! May this ever be my life’s song and my story!
God Bless.
