Ham And Egg Breakfast
Contributed by John Bright on Mar 10, 2025 (message contributor)
A chicken and a pig were talking about how people don’t truly appreciate what goes into making a breakfast of eggs and ham. The chicken spoke first: “Folks don’t appreciate me and all the hard work it takes to lay an egg. It really hurts!” The pig replied, “That’s the difference between you and me. It takes commitment to lay an egg, but it takes sacrifice to supply the ham.”
First Key Principle for Redemption: Blood must be shed, and blood must be applied.
Jesus was the sacrifice – the source of the shed blood. We need commitment to apply that blood to all the parts of our lives.
