Matthew 27:46 (also Mark 15:34)
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” (NKJV)
In the darkest hours of his suffering, Jesus cried out the opening words of Psalm 22. And although much has been suggested regarding the meaning of this phrase, it was quite apparent the agony Christ felt as he expressed separation from God. Here we see the Father turning way from the Son as Jesus bore the full weight of our sin.
( As I am in my centered peace writing this blog, I am weeping) Every time I just close my eyes and I think of a father that has his son being tormented and beaten, all the while watching, and here is this man, this powerful that is placed on this cross, and he is beaten and ridiculed, all the while he is doing this for us.
It truly makes you think just how special we are to the father and the son, and needless to say, all of us have played a part in taking what they have given us for granted.
Each time that I look at myself in the mirror and I see this Cross around my neck. I think about how significant it truly is, and the man that walked with this cross, and was laughed and made a mockery of him, because it was too much to bare for those idiots who didn't want to believe.
In the end Jesus was just so amazing, and was humbled and a servant, and even before dying he still placed others before himself " Forgive them father, for they know not what they do" Now, only a humbled man, could say that especially at his final hour.
The Cross that we see often is one of Love, I look at each part of the cross, and I think of the great love that the lord had for us, and the pain that he must have felt seeing his child being brutally beaten. In my spirit, I know that the lord did this so we can all spend eternity with him and his son.
We are here on borrowed time, and in this time that we have we must spend it, following Jesus, and showing the lord that he didn't make a mistake when he sacrificed his son for us. It's time for all of us to bring a change into this world, Our papa is coming soon, and he is giving us enough time to get it right!
This time that he has given us, is for the learning of his son and helping his children.
No one should persih at all, this walk with God is not hard, it's so beautiful. There is no fear, worries, sadness, it's joy! even in the trials God gives them to us, so we can never forget about his son.
We may go through tribulations, and experience lives disappointment's, but nothing is worst than watching your son being beaten because no one wanted to beleive that he was the son of man.
I always think about Michael Jackson in these moments, he wasn't beaten and placed on a cross, but he still experienced a spiritual beating by those who couldn't beleive that a man could care about a world and Gods children the way that he did. It's sad for many now, to love him and listen to his music and say " Michael was beautiful and he cared, and shared the greatest gift God to us and that is Love.
In the next few months, our world will see many signs of the lords return. Remember God did not give any time of when he would come back, we should all be ready for he will unexpectedly like a thief in the night.
I am looking forward to the day I will see his face, and I hope that when the father brings me before him, he would say Well Done my humble and faithful servant! You took my gifts and saved your brothers and sisters, and now you can continue your assignment in the eternal realm of the heavens.
God bless us all, May this week be the greatest week,that you experience the lords presence, and everyday that you wake, PRAISE HIM! Tell the Father Thank you for your Son " JESUS" Master and Savior!
Get ready for major blessings! The lord is manifesting the desires of the heart, according to his will. For the serving of the Lord.
Remember that I love you, and so does God.
