It’ll forever be such an unbelievable blessing to know that Christ died on the cross to save us from our sins. Honestly, how can I live my life so mindlessly while knowing that? How is every day not dedicated to living for the almighty God who sent His only Son to death so that there could be a way for us to be with Him? I don’t have an answer.. because I know that’s not the way it should be. I’m reminded deeply today of just how significant Christ’s crucifixion is.

“But he was pierced for our transgressions;
    he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
    and with his wounds we are healed.”

Isaiah 53:5

Father.. I sit here with no words to thank you enough. Thank you for sending your only Son to come down, and live the perfect life only to be crucified on the cross for our sins.. Thank you for saving me. Would you help me to live a life that is genuinely understanding and reflecting of this amazing grace you have shown me… Thank you for finding a way for us undeserving, broken sinners to sit with you at the table. May I be reminded of and moved by Christ’s death forevermore, so that I live for you, always. Amen.
