On Maundy (originally from the Latin word for "command") Thursday, we recall the command that the Lord gave his disciple - to love one another. We also think about how he commanded his disciples to eat his body under the bread and drink his blood with the wine. We heed his invitation to remember what he accomplished through his life and death and receive the forgiveness of our sins throu...

While Jesus hung on the cross, darkness reigned. Covered with the sins of the world, and deemed the sinner of sinners by his Father, Jesus experience the very agonies of hell. He willingly endured that pain, beyond anything we could ever imagine, because he was committed to completing the task the Father gave him: to rescue sinners from the punishment we deserved. God bless our meditation on Jesus...

Job had health, wealth, a beautiful family, and the respect of his peers. But God allowed Satan to take it all away from him.

Everyone is chasing something and everyone has a price they are willing to pay to get what they are chasing and to keep what they get. Many times this leads us down a path of selling our exalted position - being a child of God - for something that we think is truly great. Jesus calls us to repentance, calls us his friend, and shows us that the only thing he wants is us and the price he is willing...

We were stuck in a mess we couldn't escape, trapped by the fear of the cost, unwilling and unable to pay the price and unable to find the way out. Deep down, we thought we could handle it on our own. But the truth is we cannot. Only One could, and he did it at the cross. Jesus stepped in to pay the price we could not afford, would not choose, and didn't even realize we needed. One Savior...

Looking directly at the sun would burn your retinas and give permanent blind spots. What happens when you look directly at God? It sounds great , at least in theory. But it would be even worse.
