I may write about other things this week, but I want to post much about the cross and the resurrection since it is Passion Week.Thus, I trust you will stop by often this week to meditate on the greatest gift since life: NEW life!
“There is something in Calvary that passes our understanding, and the words about the Precious Blood should never be read or sung except on the knees of our spirit.” - Amy Wilson Carmichael
“For the sake of each of us he laid down his life - worth no less than the universe. He demands of us in return our lives for the sake of each other.” - Clement of Alexandria
“If we would live aright it must be by the contemplation of Christ’s death.” - Charles Haddon Spurgeon
“He suffered not as God, but He suffered who was God.” - John Owen
“Christ became what we are that he might make us what he is.” - St. Athanasius of Alexandria
