March 17 Only Son

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

There's something about babies. As a child I loved books of animals and their babies. I loved to go to the North Dakota Winter Show and see the new baby pigs, lambs and calves.

Today I wandered to a nearby sheep pen and caught a few really new lambs with thier mothers. Something precious about those new babies. And the momma sheep were so concerned that I not get too close.

It is normal to want to protect your baby... especially if it's the only one you have.

How astounding that God the Father sent His only Son to earth as a sacrifice for our sins. Why? So that WE won't perish, but have eternal life.

His only son.

For me.
For you.

This photograph was taken today near our home. I hope you won't get tired of seeing more of my adorable lamb photos in the days to come!
