12/05 Matthew 27:46
46 At about three o’clock, Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Eli, Eli,[a] lema sabachthani?” which means “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?”
FELT
He felt our pain, our sinfulness.
He knew what was happening.
He knew what we needed.
He also knew we needed a way into the family of God.
He was willing to pay our price.
Dear God, help us tell the story.
Whatever it takes to help people avoid eternal separation from God. Jesus is Lord.
