Following Him

April 12, 2020

“And they compelled a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross. And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull).”

— Mark 15:21-22 ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION

We carry our cross and follow Jesus. The path we take following Him may lead us to Golgotha. But, at the Place of a Skull is where our following ends and His departure starts. Our following ends at the point where our sin meets His grace. At the crucifixion. Our place on the cross is substituted with Jesus. The results of our following and His death? Is His mercy, His forgiveness, His resurrection.

I hope this little story reminds you of the mighty grace of God as you face the Monday blues or circumstances that may be obscuring your view and robbing you from finding joy in God’s grace.

Chicken Scratch Thoughts

Overall, fear God. Fear His holy name.

Prayer

Prayer is simply calling out on God not only for ourselves but for all people as well.
