Calming The Storm Within

Verse of the Day
Friday, April 3, 2015 by Marjorie Vawter

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

 

“When Christ hung on the Cross of Calvary He was, apparently, the biggest failure the world had ever seen; for no other man had even dared to make such astounding claims as He, yet there He hung; nailed to the cross of shame, exposed to the view of a coarse, mocking crowd; cut off in early manhood; betrayed by one of His own personal friends; deserted by all of the other apostles—one of whom, after loud professions of devotion, had denied Him with oaths and curses. It seemed as if that most wonderful and touching of all intercessory prayers (recorded in John 17) had never reached the Father’s ear; and as if the words “Father, the hour is come, glorify Thy Son” were impossible of fulfillment.

                  “Not one soul, even of those who loved the Saviour best, understood Him and His life work; therefore not one friend could really sympathize with the God-man, who, on His human side, so hungered for sympathy.

                  “If you and I are truly following in the Master’s footsteps, we too must be willing to risk apparent failure in the eyes of the world; and, harder still, must often be content to be misunderstood by our follow-Christians. It is only when we have learned the faith and obedience which leave all consequences with God, that we can know the power and deep joy contained in these words, that once sounded so terrible—‘I am crucified with Christ.’ —E. A. G.” Springs in the Valley
