It is Finished- 20 of 21 Days of Hope
Goal: Hope To You
Theme: Devotion
Difficulty: ⭐️ (1/10)
I like to think that the disciples were filled with hope until the last moment. Any second now, Jesus would come down from the cross and his body would be healed while the world bowed at his feet. But that was not the case.
Most of Jesus' closest friends abandoned him in his time of despair. Yet only through this sacrifice could we know forgiveness and peace.

Dear God,
We remember today, the pain and suffering of the cross, and all that Jesus was willing to endure, so we could be set free. He paid the price to offer us the gift of eternal life.
God we stand amazed that you cared so much about our salvation that you sent your Son to die the death we all deserved so that we could be reconciled to you.
Help us never to take for granted this gift of hope on our behalf.
Jesus, you wept for us in the garden, you bore our shame and our penalty, and by your wounds we are healed.
Thank you that because of your huge sacrifice we can find grace and be free.
Thank you that we can say with great hope, “It is finished…” For we know what’s still to come. And death has lost its sting.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
