remember me

Through story and music—
what if we viewed Good Friday from a perspective we don't often consider?
A dying felon
meets the Holy One
both hung...
left between
Earth and Heaven.
The criminal turns to Jesus,
searching His bloodshot eyes
with desperation.
he has just enough
presence of mind left
to realize that only this Man
this innocent Man
hanging beside him
can make his
guilt-smeared life
make any sense at all.
All he has left is one last
long-shot of hope.
One simple ask for mercy.
Gasping for air
he struggles to get out the words...
Jesus, remember me
when you come into your kingdom.
Luke 23:42
Take a moment to listen to Remember Me
remember me lyrics
Jesus lovingly responds:
I tell you the truth,
today you will be with me in paradise.
Luke 23:43
No matter what we've done.
No matter how dark or seemingly unforgivable.
With a humble prayer,
casting ourselves and our future on the mercy of Jesus,
like the remorseful thief,
we will be with Him forever.
We are never without hope.
Never too far gone.
Ever.
We are always met
with wide open arms.
Embraced
Loved
Forgiven
Forever

Hi Greg and Corrine. So blessed to be subscribed to your blog! We remember both of you from Willow Creek in So Barrington. So many changes. We don’t go there anymore. Seeing your blog is a blast from the past! So looking forward to connecting with both of you! Blessings!

Good Friday really makes you stop and feel all He did for us. Do we deserve it?
The song was beautiful. Wow.
Beautiful 💜 I could 'feel' the song, the love of Christ for the thief, for all of us, coming through. And the words of your post, the reminder of His Truth that we can immerse fully in beginning this day, this moment, on Good Friday. Happy Easter Greg and Corinne. I am so happy you are out there, sharing your 'gifts' with us.
