I heard this recently, and it really hit me:
It wasn't the nails that kept Christ on the cross…
It was His love for you and me.
Could a couple nails really keep the King and Creator of the Universe down??
At any moment, Jesus could have walked away from the Father's will. Even after the intense beating, and after being nailed to the cross, Jesus could have used His power to heal himself and live. Instead, He chose the Father's will, to the point of His own death. He chose life and love for you and me.
Tonight our team spent time in worship, and I was challenged as I remembered what Christ gave for me. He gave everything. I thought to myself, am I giving everything to God?
