We have even been the ones to tell this to others. The whole purpose for this saying is to give the impression that the road you have traveled was not and is not an easy road to walk and that they possibly could not have done it. So when someone approaches us, we use this to symbolize that if the believe what we have gone through was so easy, to have them do it and see if they feel it was easy after.
Well your challenge has been accepted.....by Jesus!!!
Jesus was born for you...not in a hospital but a manger.
He lived for you...sitting next to people you never would, did things for people you never would.
He was lied on for you...people said he was a blasphemer and had no right to do what He was doing
He was persecuted for you...they set a TRUE criminal free and tortured Him with whips and chains.
He died for you...by carrying your burdens and sins in the form of a cross up to the hill on Calvary and was nailed on that cross.
He rose for you...to show that He was in fact the Son of Man and that he was able to walk a mile and more in your shoe so that you may have life more abundantly.
So next time someone approaches you saying how easy your life may be....remember someone who truly cares and loves you walked a great distance so that the road you are currently travelling on isn't quite as hard.
