Friday: “It is finished” (John 19:29-30)
A sigh of relief and deliverance that finally the endless pain and torment are over at last. The suffering ended. Death is now a blessing. Jesus’ cry is not a cry of defeat or despair, but one of triumph. He has endured to the end. The strife is over, the battle won.
Jesus gave his life for us. He suffered and died that we might be made whole. What love is this? What did Jesus come to accomplish? What do we learn about obedience?
