Everything

Today is Good Friday, the day of the ultimate Passover when Jesus took on the sins of the world as the blood sacrifice.  When Jesus said, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" it wasn't because he felt abandoned on the cross.  It was because Jesus was wearing all the sins of the world at once, and God couldn't bear to look on Him. 

"Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" ~John 1:29

I love this skit to Lifehouse's "Everything".  It pretty much sums up the hope and meaning of the cross in 5 minutes, 33 seconds.  Especially the last part with the knife, because I know several people with diabetes have felt that hopeless.  Gives me chills every time I watch it.


Happy Easter!
