Day 38: Without


A day without Jesus is

a day

without...

without

Peace

without

Hope

without

Joy

and

WITH

Total separation from

God~

Darkness...

the same darkness that filled the sky

on the day that is called

Good Friday.

The day

when Jesus became separated from God

on the cross

the brutal cross

where He hung

For three hours

From noon until three in the afternoon darkness came over all the land. Matthew 27:25

Darkness filled the heart of

His mother

and

His disciples.

A day without Jesus

Is a day

without.

What is your "without" that causes you to be

without

Peace

without

Joy

without

Hope?

But God

allowed darkness to take over

when

He

allowed His Son to suffer

as Jesus wore each nail

that kept Him on the cross...

And then

about three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice,

"Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?"

(which means "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"). Matthew 27:46

Have you ever cried out

those same words in your "without" moments~

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, so far from my cries of anguish? My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer, by night, but I find no rest. Psalm 22:1-2

Jesus

Experiencing

Total Darkness

Total Separation

form His Father~

Jesus'

without

greatest moment...

"the manifestation of God’s hatred of sin, in some unexplained way, that Jesus experienced in that terrible hour. The suffering He endured was due to us, and it is that suffering by which we can be saved from eternal death." (@gotquestions.org)

God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:12

Once and for All

so

darkness would never take over us

on a

Good day

called

Good Friday...

Good for us

because

God demonstrates His own love for us in this:

While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

On this

Good Day

Let's

FAST

from

without

by

nailing to the cross

whatever is weighing you down

from

living

WITH

Peace

Joy

Hope

by looking up to the

One

Who we can't live

without

because

A day without Jesus

is a day

without~

A moment without Jesus

is a moment

without~

A second without Jesus

is a second

without!
