Heavenly Father, I am grateful for the Cross and the willingness of Jesus to sacrifice His life so that I could be reconciled to You. It is to where my thoughts return when I experience events in my life that cause me to question Your love for me. The result is always the same because it is the one occasion in human history where I can see what You were willing to do as a demonstration of Your love, mercy and grace. Sometimes I drift away but a simple reflection on Calvary is all I need to get reoriented to You and Your Kingdom. I not only see Your love, but I also recall where the source of my strength was established so that I can identify with Jesus Christ. Now, when I am weak and weary, the Cross gives me the sustenance I need to carry on and flows like a river from deep within. Thank You for displaying, once and for all, that Your love is without reservation. 1 Peter 3:18 “For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.” 1 John 4:9-10 “This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.”
