Last Words: The Thirst for Fulfillment

Most of us have been taught that the crucifixion was something that happened to Jesus. Rome won, evil won, and a good man was crushed by forces bigger than himself.But John won't let you read it that way.He tells you that in the middle of the worst moment of his life, Jesus was knowing; aware, present, in full possession of what was happening and why. When he said "I thirst" from the cross, it wasn't desperation; it was completion. The final move of a sovereign God who came to finish something, and did exactly that.That changes how you read suffering, not just his, but yours. If the cross wasn't chaos, maybe your hardest chapter isn't either.What would change in your life if you actually believed that God finishes what he starts?
