Holy Week Reflections

As Christ followers, Holy Week is an opportunity for us to spend time considering the depth of God’s love for us and the sacrifice He made on our behalf. Lent was for us the time to reflect more and meditate upon our lives so that we can renew ourselves and prepare to live again the mystery of our salvation. 

Our church will have a film showing tomorrow evening and we choose to watch "The Passion of the Christ" movie as we remember and meditate God's passion and amazing love for us. Ive seen this movie several times already but every time I watch it, my heart feels like it's beating heavily in my throat.  A heavy weight pushes down on my chest. Its so powerful and it really touches my heart.  Just think of it!  He was innocent, he was God, he'd done nothing wrong and they killed him. But Jesus did it as an atonement for our sins.

Therefore we must confess, pray, and meditate on the suffering, death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.We have to take time to reflect on the disappointment and disgrace that abides in our heart, personally.  Then, take time to contemplate that there really is hope for another day because of the life giving work of the Risen Savior.  Pray to Him, asking Him to infuse your heart with His life and then believe that He will do it, by faith.

May this Holy Week continue to be meaningful for you. God bless you my friends! :)
