"You have prepared a body for me," Hebrews 10:5.
That's Jesus talking to God. He asserts that God didn't want him to make special offerings of animals or grains or any such sacrifices. No. Rather, God intended for Christ to live out his whole life as an actual man, body and all. A real human being. The price to be paid for our redemption began as an embryo in his mother's womb. And Jesus's response to the body God prepared was: God, I've come to do your will. The ransom he paid for us shows us who we could have been.
We meet with a brother or sister today meditating about the one who paid our price. And together we give thanks to God for love's plan in that man.
