Oh..But Jesus did!

Everyone on planet earth, even atheists, know that there is something greater and that we were created by something. Everyone is searching for Truth, everyone is. The Truth, and how its been established to explain creation, has turned into a confusing mess of religion, tradition, folklore, and many other things.

My thought.

You can't look at this beautiful earth and think that a star, or black hole or something "out there", blew up and created it. You can't look at the amazing human body and think that it evolved from a monkey. Your human spirit knows that the mountains, the ocean, seasons and all that the earth holds, has a creator. Every human person that called themselves the one, the way, the truth, is dead, in the ground and will not live again until they stand in judgement on that great day.

There is only One, who lives. It is He who holds a power that in some sense terrifies people.  Why? Perhaps because as people, the example presented to us, of those who claim to have power,  has been abused and used as a form to manipulate and control. It is hard to imagine a person, would ever use supernatural power for good, to heal, to deliver, to empower, to save. To have this kind of power, and then give it away is just inconceivable to the human mind.

But oh,  This man, named Jesus did. He is real and He gave His life so that our lives would be saved, and reconnected to our Creator, our Father, our God. His assignment, will never need to be redone. It was His alone to complete and He alone was the only One who could do it. He shed, untainted, sinless human blood. He died a most excruciating human death. He endured and had to listen to human insults, mockery and laughter. Probably the most painful and terrifying moment in His human life, was being separated from His Father, His Creator, His God while He hung on the cross. He hung on the cross, still knowing that without forgiving and asking for Forgiveness for mankind, His purpose would be incomplete.

Oh, but He completed it! Though He shed His blood, it never lost its Power. He gave up His human spirit, He defeated death and the grave and then, He rose again as our Savior. He has the most famous name in all of the earth. Jesus.  Its the name that is above all names, and at that name, every knee shall bow..willingly. No one was before Him, and there will never be another after Him.

The Easter Story is not a fable, it's not a tall tale, No bunny rabbit, boiled egg or creatively crafted basket can overshadow this story and steal the shine from Christ. The Easter story, changed the future of mankind for eternity. The cool part, He exchanged His life, so that we could keep ours and YET, He Lives.

I'm glad about it.
Remembering...the day we were all set free.
Blessings,
