What He did not do!

Glory Hallelujah He is Risen!!!  He is Risen indeed!  Those of us who know the Lord are celebrating this day because it is the day that our Savior beat death and demonstrated His Glory by rising from the dead JUST LIKE HE SAID HE WOULD!  Why did He go to the cross for us?  He went to the cross to save us from our sins, past present and future.  He went to the cross to redeem us.  He went to the cross to restore our fellowship with God the Father.  He went to the cross to do that which we could not do for ourselves...pay the price for our own sin..."For the wages of sin is death..." Romans 6:23  Praise God that He loved us so much that He sent His only begotten son so that we would not perish but have eternal life.

But on this day of celebration, do we forget what He did NOT do for us?  He did not crush us for the sins we committed yesterday, or the day before or the day before...instead...He crushed His son.

The thought of what He did not do to me, that which I deserved, makes what he DID do for me, that which I did not deserve, so entirely more beautiful and wonderful.

HOSANNA!!!  HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST!!!
