Wednesday

saving Lord,
As we wander the days of this most holy week together, may I take a moment and truly stand in awe of what you have done. You have stood before the Roman Empire and been speechless, aware of how little power they truly hold. You have stood before the crowds and heard their cries for blood, and listened in sorrow, aware that they do not know what they are saying. You have walked the streets with the cross upon your back, mocked and beaten, weak and straining, carrying the sins of the world upon your back. You have hung upon a cross, for all to see, for all to be saved, out of unending love. You have been to hell and back, bursting forth from the tomb to share the good news of death-beating love. You are truly an AWESOME GOD!
Amen.
