He Is Risen

The Son of God is risen from the grave! Death has been defeated! Because He lives, we will live also! It's hard, truly hard, to express which point of God's story of Redemption is more beautiful. I struggle with this. And, that's perfectly alright. It's a good, necessary, and appropriate struggle. What can we explain the glories of more? The power and love of His death for us? The power and victory of His defeat of death? It's too hard to manage. How can we? Creatures like us will never fully comprehend the depths of both events. Yet, here we are. Once again, we will delight ourselves in the majesty of Incarnate love. The full stretch of incomprehensible wonders in the God Who loves the offenders with such a depth that He steps down to chase them and pay their debt. Before He drew us, we reveled in that debt and its consequences. Until that glorious redemption was applied. We are great sinners. Jesus, during this week of redemption accomplished, shows us that He is a better Savior than we ever are sinners.
