Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.

Hebrews 2

Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. v14-15

God came for us...for me specifically, because we are slaves to our sin and slaves to our death without Him.  We need cleansing.  So we need Him...desperately.  So "God sent His one and only son".

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. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. John 3:16-18

My Prayer: Lord Jesus...I need You and I need nothing else...You are my savior and without You, I have nothing.  I am so desperately in love with You...that You would do all that You have done and continue to do for me.  I am so deeply thankful precisely because I am not deserving of Your love.  I am broken...but I have been whole by You.  Please forgive me Jesus for my anger, rage, lust, etc.  Help me overcome and turn from such sin and towards You.  Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength.  Help me love others as You do.  Help me grow in my faith.  Help me truly understand who You are and what You have done for me.  Give me strength.  Give Lisa comfort, strength and freedom from pain.  Please heal and cure her of this cancer.  Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
