While the cross if filled with horror, the real horror is the depth of my sin, and the fact that I needed a savior. The grace of the cross is that God planned, from the beginning, to allow his son to take on my sin, and die in my place. I'm so humbled and thankful for the cross.
Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection, not in books alone but in every leaf in springtime. – Martin Luther
Our sin put Him there; His love for us kept Him there; His greatest work was accomplished there and sealed with an "It is Finished."

ReplyDeleteIt's so amazing that Jesus could love me this much. I'm in awe of His grace, and the lengths He would go to in order to save a sinner like me. Thank you, Deanna, for this potent reminder. Warm hugs.
