Two Sides To Every Story

So the saying goes, There are two sides to every story.  I feel like I am learning this the hard way this week, but that's not what I want to talk about.  The story I want to focus on is the gospel.  The two sides of that story are Jesus' and mine.  If Jesus were to tell that story, what would be his key points?  I think he would share his love for me that drove him to the cross because of my sin condition.  He would emphasize my life in him through his resurrection and the glory to be gained.  How do I tell that story?  What are my key points?  For me it is the mercy and grace of God that moves Him to send His Son to take my place on the cross.  It is the hope I find in Jesus that drives me to greater love and devotion for the One who created me.  Both "stories" are accurate and both perspectives are necessary to see the true picture of the Savior.  How would you tell your side of the Gospel?
