Passion of Jesus

It has been a tough week. Easter week always is. If Satan is going to jerk a pastor around it will be this week. In light of what Jesus went through one this week, I am shutting up!

Historians and Theologians call this week “Passion”. As an American I find this a strange word, but in reality this is the right word. When I think of passion I think about the love of a man to a woman. God thinks about His love for us! This is the day of passion! For this is the day God demonstrated His love for us by the cross. The passionate love of our great God lead Him to a blood stained cross, wow!

In light of this day I am going to sing to Jesus a little louder, speak to those around me kinder, convey my love for Jesus with more intentionally, and just be more grateful. This is Passion Day the day of the cross, the day of redemption, the dark day of the sacrifice of Jesus, the great day of His poured out love. This is the day!

Oh yeah, Sunday is coming and the power of the resurrection! It just keeps getting better!
