The full impact of Christ’s suffering on the cross will not be realized until we see Him face to face. Even though we get a glimpse of the sacrifice He made by reading the Scriptures, seeing movies like The Passion of the Christ, and experience His presence, we see and feel only in part. Our finite minds do not understand what it means for an infinite God to have such an intimate love for each of us. Worship and praise for our Lord is a very humbling experience
“At the cross, in holy love, God through Christ paid the full penalty of our disobedience himself.” - John R.W. Stott, The Cross of Christ
Questions to consider:
How do we often minimize the gravity of Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross?
How does today’s reading help you worship and marvel at who Jesus is?
