Great Illustration of Sacrificial Love


Forgive me for I realize this falls more in the category of homiletics than apologetics, ...but I couldn't resist.

Read Mother Delays Cancer Treatments So Baby Can Live. What makes this story so touching is that one level it resembles the example set for us by Jesus.

Note the voluntary choice, the great personal sacrifice, the courage and selflessness of the one making the sacrifice, and the fact that the one making the sacrifice was overjoyed in view of the outcome.

"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13)
