This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. (1 John 4:10, NIV)
During Holy Week, Jesus is the Love of the Father,
humbly submitting to death on the cross.
Watch as Jesus burns with zeal for His Father’s house and
cleanses the temple.
Listen as He urges His disciples to
pray boldly,
patiently endure persecution, and
remain faithful.
Breathe the alabaster fragrance of a woman’s lavish worship
in preparation for Jesus’ burial.
Be humbled as He bows to
model servanthood and
washes your feet.
Stand helplessly as He is arrested and led away.
Hear His silence in the face of brutal injustice.
Sense His deep loneliness.
See His agony.
Watch Him die.
Feel the awful stillness as a huge stone seals in His lifeless body.
This is the measure of Jesus’ love for the Father.
This is the measure of His love for us.
This is the new standard for our love for each other:
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:34-35, NASB)
