Here's the story:
A friend shared an interesting story about a butcher at the
recent Passover.
The butcher had volunteered to slaughter a lamb for friends to
eat at
Passover. He said that taking the lamb's life would not affect
him. He was
very experienced in the proper slaughter of cattle and a lamb
would not be a
problem.
The time for the slaughter came and without
hesitation, he slit the
throat of the lamb but some blood spilled on the butcher's hand.
The lamb,
in its last moment of life, licked his hand clean.
The butcher
dropped his
knife and fell flat, weeping uncontrollably. He later confessed
that he saw
how the Lord (the Lamb of God) had made him clean by the giving
of His life.
Life just isn't the same after you understand the gift from
Messiah Yeshua.
It's a moment of truth that lasts for eternity.
