the cross

You know when you look at the cross, what it means and the story behind it. Sometimes it's easy to forget about what Christ went through on the cross, the pain, humilaty of hanging on a cross and most likely hanging there naked. But the cross is so much more than a man hanging on it. Jesus Christ was beaten with whips mocked had a crown of thorns and nailed to the cross just to raise from the grave three days later, for me and you, just so we could have a one way ticket.

The picture of Christ on the cross in all the pain and blood, and with the blood dripping and running down like a stream of water running down the cross across the ground has been in my mind a lot today almost like a power point show.

I see this picture in my mind and it is like I did this to Him, I mean I'm the one that beat, mocked, and nailed him to the cross. I'm hearing this little voice saying, "what are you going to do for me. You are the reason that I'm hanging here."

Now I have to get out of my comfort zone and tell what My Lord has done for me, you, and everyone.
