Respite For the Weary
He is risen, my friend! On this Resurrection day hear the good news:
But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through Him! For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life! (Romans 5:8-10)
I am thankful for the demonstration of God's love to me as a sinner.
I am humbled that Jesus took God's justifiable wrath so that I could be saved from it.
I am awed that through Christ's death and resurrection, I, an enemy of God, am now reconciled to Him... today and forever.
May your life and mine be daily marked by both the weighty wonder of the cross and the eternal joy of the empty tomb.
Yes, He is risen indeed!
Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 1 Corinthians 13:8-10
Dear Lord,
Your love is from everlasting to everlasting! Everything else fades away. Help us to be more driven by your love than anything else--not riches, not knowledge, not power. Invade us and involve us so that we can give your eternal love to someone who needs it today. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
