The Great Exchange (CO2 for O2) Trees

by Pastor Karen Runjo




Have you ever sat under a large tree, been shielded by its immense branches and been taken in by the peace that seems to exude from its every green hue? It’s like some unseen exchange is taking place – peace for anxiety, size perspective for problems that loom large, and the real exchange of oxygen for carbon dioxide. The great exchange. Another tree witnessed the greatest exchange ever known - the tree of Calvary. The sins of humankind exchanged for the sinless, sacrificed life of the darling of heaven - Jesus.

There is no greater exchange rate “Come let us reason together, though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow”. Isaiah 1:18

There is none like it; none that can compare. Salvation is found in no other name, no other place, no other way. Thank God for Jesus.

 


Prayer thought:

Rejoice today in the reasoning and reckoning of God! Consider the divine exchange he is willing to offer us all and express gratitude in your heart.
