God knew our need

If God had perceived that our greatest need was economic, He would have sent us and economist.

If He had perceived that our greatest need was entertainment, He would have sent us an comedian or an artist.

If God had perceived that our greatest need was political stability, He would have sent us a politician.

If He had perceived that our greatest need was health, He would have sent us a doctor.

But He perceived that our greatest need involved our sin, our alienation from Him, our profound rebellion, our death;

and He sent us a Saviour.
