Today Christ paid the price for our redemption. What a price He paid, but only God and He knew Sunday was coming when the price of today would turn into GLORIOUS VICTORY! The darkness of today and tomorrow would be gone forever!

For so much of my life I thought the glorious light of Christ’s resurrection would be found at my death when I’d enter heaven. There was a song that Steve Green sang years ago entitled, “When His Kingdom Comes”. I would sing this song at the time and choke up when I’d get to the 2nd verse. Its words were, “Oh, that I would be His perfect dwelling place. Oh that my King would fill up the empty space; then flood every room, every part, sanctify this temple, then build His throne in my heart.” I’d always lament at this time wishing somehow Christ would do this but I knew that empty space of mine was too polluted. Today, however, “my King” has done this for me! That empty space of mine is flooded today with the truth of what Christ did so long ago to redeem me. This is not just true for me, it is true for every single one of us! All we have to do is accept Him–Jesus Christ into our lives confessing our sins–no matter what they are–to Him. His work so many years ago buried them never to be remembered again.

OH, WHAT A SAVIOR CHRIST IS!!
