We all know that day in history.
It was that day which a world changing miracle happened.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You know it. You're the monster. I'm a monster. We all are monsters. Monsters living in this 'monster' world.
Don't believe it? Take a look around you. Violence, immorality, lust, hatred, jealousy... the list goes on.
Satan laughs. He laughs at you. He laughs at your stupidity. He laughs at your weaknesses. He laughs because you have sin. He laughs because he knows you are DOOMED.
"For the
wages of sin is death, ..."
Romans 6:23
He laughs. But he does not see the second part to this verse. He forgot 1 John 4:8.
He thought that God was the all powerful judge up there. He thought God was just simply holy. He knew God HATES sin. And he guessed that God won't even lift a finger to help someone so WRETCHED like you.
Someone like you. Someone who sinned against Him (and is still doing so). Someone who caused the spit to land in His face. Did I mention spit?
You forged that crown of thorns with your sin. YOUR sin. When you were jealous, you sinned. When you were angry, you sinned.
Now you are depressed. You sinned again.
You rejected His love. You sinned again.
When you let your thoughts get the better of you and rejected His way out. You sinned... again.
And with EACH and EVERY sin you committed, it was reflected as a scar on His body. Did I mention how painful the scars were?
You bet it was painful. If only you tasted the agony. If only you heard that mockery. If only you felt the pain.
If only you felt that spit.
Yet, what did you do? You sinned all over and over again.
You made Him sad. You made Him rejected.
And He felt all these on the way to Calvary. ALL these.
When you said "GO TO HELL!"
When you said "I HATE YOU!"
When you said "I'm useless, I give up."
He heard it. On that way to Calvary, these very words were ringing in His mind.
Satan laughed. He laughed his heart out.
He laughed at YOU.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back to the miracle.
Right from Gethsemane to Calvary, those words rang in His mind. He thought about you. About you.
"My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."He knew the price He had to pay. Just to save a wretch like you.
But it was not possible. The cup could not be taken away, cause if it was, it would mean taking you away.
You know what? You may be a wretch. You may be certain the end is near.
When you said "GO TO HELL!", you ran out of faith.
When you said " I HATE YOU!", you ran out of love.
And when you said "I'm useless, I give up.", you ran out of HOPE.
And you know what? God could have taken the cup away. He's God anyway, and gods are supposed to be supreme. They are supposed to be faultless no matter what they do.
But you forgot. He's God with a capital G. G for Grace.
Grace shown on a letter 't'. A wooden 't' with 3 nails stuck on it. Nails that suspended the Wonderful Saviour.
His grace saved you. Wonderful Grace.
He loves you.
All you have to do is one simple thing. Trust in Him, and follow Him.
"Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."1 John 4:18
"For the wages of sin is death,but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"Romans 6:23
God is love. Love Him. That's the least you could at least do after all He done for you. A wretch like you.
Wonderful Grace. Learn from this.
God bless.
To my joy: God loves you, and I hope you understand His love for you. His ways are not our ways, and sometimes you may find that all hope is lost, and that the past catches up with you. It's good that the devil lost this time, but promise me you will NEVER do anything that foolish again, k? And one last thing, I love you, very much.God bless.
