Three adjacent scarred up execution crosses on the dark side of the Holy City
A dying felon meets the Holy One.
Both hanging between Earth and Heaven.
This criminal looks in Jesus' face,
searching His bloodshot eyes with desperation.
He has just enough presence of mind left
to realize that only this Man
hanging next to 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.
He gasps for air
as 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
Jesus answers him
“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
