This weekend is striking me much more intensely than it ever has. The crucification and resurrection of Jesus Christ. What Jesus went through.. the way He remained silent to the priests and elder’s accusations who had arrested Him out of envy. How the priests and elders persuaded the mob to crucify Jesus instead of the notorious criminal Barrabas. The way Pilate was persuaded by the mob and Pilate washed his hands of it and said, “I am innocent of this man’s blood. The responsibility is yours!” The way the soldiers mocked Him, tortured Him and crucified Jesus as the mob mocked, cheered and watched. The details of this utterly break my heart. And in the midst of it all while being crucified, He saved a man who was being crucified next to Him saying, “Today you will be with me in Paradise”. How on the cross being in excruciating pain He asked for forgiveness for those who were crucifying Him. “For they know not what they do.”💔 And Jesus did it all so that we could be washed...
