17 Now Jesus was going up to Jerusalem. On the way, he took the Twelve aside and said to them, 18 "We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death 19 and will hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!"
Matthew 20:17-19
As I sit here gazing at the skyline of the city of Charlotte in the early hours of the morning, I wonder what the day has in store and as I read of what my Savior had to look forward to more than 2,000 years ago, I sit in reverent awe and worship the one who willingly suffered a horrible death for my sin in order that we could be together in a sweet communion. I sit in awe this morning of the incredible love of Jesus as I spend just a few minutes with Him to prepare my heart in order that together we could make the most of this beautiful gift of yet another day to hopefully reflect His love in a beautiful way through our words and actions as we live our lives for Him. I pray that you too would remember Jesus this morning and that you would remember all that He has done for you as you learn and grow in His amazing love and Grace. Make the most of what He has given you today because tomorrow today will be gone, forever.
