#3 - You Were On The Cross

We are quickly approaching a season full of thanksgiving and gift-giving.  As human beings we get really excited about things then move on to the next event or next big thing.  Don’t believe me?  Then just look at the jump from iPad to iPad 2.  We do this a lot as Christians too.  At Easter we focus a lot on the cross and resurrection, and at Christmas Jesus’ birth.  Both are great things to focus on, but both should be on our minds regularly as Christians.  Here’s a good reminder to us of the cross.  Matt Maher does a fantastic job with this song.

This song gets me every time. It reminds me that Jesus went to the cross alone (God had to turn away because of sin), and because of this act He can fulfill the promise “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Because of Jesus, sin can no longer separate us from the Father! I’m not going to analyze this song this week. Instead I encourage you to listen to it one more time and think of the areas in your life that you need a reminder that He was on the cross.
