I love that...Debbie - We serve a real time Savior. I love that thought! I suppose that if I had to pick the two statements that I struggle with the most, it would be #4 and #7. My goodness, how often I feel like God doesn't care (even though I know He does). How often I don't trust Him (even though I know He is completely faithful). But, I am relying totally on #7 - IT IS FINISHED. I'm resting on that promise - His work covers my messes.<br /><br />Cindy - Thanks so much for stopping by, and for leaving such a nice comment. Wishing you and yours a blessed Easter, too!<br /><br />Betty - I'm glad you enjoyed this. I have to give credit to Zig Ziglar's book. He provided so many ideas and thoughts. It was fun to line up all 7 statements like this. And yes, how grateful I am, too, for Jesus' unmatched sacrifice for me...<br /><br />Sandie - I believe them all, too. What a Savior we have, right?! And boy oh boy - being with Him in paradise sounds really, really good! In His presence forever??? Blessed are we!<br /><br />Ken - I'm so glad you enjoyed this. Wishing you the most wonder-full Easter. I will be joining you in grateful celebration of the Most Innocent One who shed His blood for us.<br /><br />Sandy - I agree. I am left speechless at the gift of salvation, and the miracle of the resurrection. That He would die for me, a sinner - I scarce can take it in. <br /><br />Joan - Even in His worst moment on earth, Jesus had the words, He WAS The Word, that reached into the depths of our hearts. He still speaks to us, across the centuries - and in the still, small voice...<br /><br />Alisa - Thank you. We all struggle (or is it just me?? :)<br />But through His finished work on the cross, and through the power of His Spirit working in us - we are new creations. The old is passed away - the new has come. And the struggles? Well, they're covered!!<br /><br />Beverly - Truly an awesome God! I am overwhelmed at how Jesus was thinking of us on that cross. Somehow, I feel guilty that it was my sin that put Him there - but I am overwhelmed and humbled by the fact that it was His love that kept Him there.<br /><br />Sandra - Yes, that grips my heart too. He is our Light - and He calls us to be light in this world, too. Sometimes, the world is so dark, that all I can do is cling to the foot of the cross. Only there does the glimmer of hope explode into glorious SONshine! (I sent you an answer on the "Fireworks" post about the necklace!)<br /><br />If I don't talk to all of you before or on Sunday - Have the most blessed Resurrection Sunday! <br /><br />He is risen.<br /><br />He is risen indeed!!<br /><br />GOD BLESS!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-74787808126256868032011-04-22T12:55:46.716-07:002011-04-22T12:55:46.716-07:00Hi Sharon -

And I love the title of the post. <br /><br />Especially, I was struck by this that you expressed, "His tenderness shone like a beacon to everyone at the foot of the cross."<br /><br />That is heart gripping to me.<br /><br />HE LIVES!!!<br /><br />Sidebar:<br />Today, I responded to your comments on my blog topics, "WHO WILL CELEBRATE WITH ME" and "FIRE WORKS NOTICE." I asked you a question on the "FIRE WORKS..." one.lioneaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10257690196451550476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-79125390208826599782011-04-21T22:10:58.795-07:002011-04-21T22:10:58.795-07:00Hi Sharon,

I might be able to give forgiveness on the back side of the story, but rarely in the middle of it.<br /><br />He could have endured the cross and grave and then pleaded to the father for forgiveness. He didn't. He is our real time example.<br /><br />And your comments about the thirst were very interesting to me! I had never been taught that before. Awesome.
