Many times I stop and reflect on how much Christ had to endure to heal each and every one of us. I’ve watched The Passion of the Christ and during the entire scene where Jesus was being led to his crucifixion I wept. It wasn’t a silent weeping, but an all out painful cry and literally yelling at my television screen “STOP!”. As painful as it was to watch it was also a strong reminder as to how deeply Jesus loved us. No, I didn’t need a movie to tell me about His suffering. I know God gave up his only Son so that I can be here on earth to follow His teachings.
I woke up around 3:30 am and could not go back to sleep. The He Will Rise set from ODBD was calling out to me and I thought of this crucifix charm I had and this just came together early this morning:
Take time to reflect on how Jesus has healed you. I’m sure He has many times over.
