The Cross

The other night I was praying and thinking on Christ and what He did for me on the cross. I was brought to my knees as a revelation filled my mind. I imagined myself kneeling before that cross as one of His disciples. The anguish I felt was overwhelming. I began to cry and ask God why it had to be. Jesus claimed to be one with the Father, why would He not save Himself? I saw Him there, on the cross. The pain as He lifted His broken body, the nails tearing His skin, His labored breaths... It was too much. I fell on my face and cried out for mercy.

At that moment I was on the cross. It was I who was being crucified. I saw myself up there and the reality of it hit me harder than I have ever known. The pain and the agony that was to be mine was put on Christ. This thought was almost too much. I sobbed on the floor for sometime.

Then, almost as if I was awakening from a deep sleep the scene changed. There was no more mourning. Jesus Christ is alive and every word He spoke was truth. Here was the Son of God. I understood what had transpired. He died and I died with Him. He lives and I live in Him. Jesus Christ is my righteousness. Jesus Christ, my life.
