For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1 Cor 1:18
If you listen to some preachers or denominations miracles, healings, raising the dead, prophecy, spiritual gifts are the power of God.
But these same people appear to often miss this sentiment or even know its meaning.
To me it means love, it means redemption, forgiveness, cleansing, acceptance, victory, everything I dare to hope for.
It is Jesus saying I am special, worthy of being loved, cared for, that something so precious in me called Him from heaven to make me a child of the Father. But also to every brother or sister so called, and open.
To even just see God on the cross is healing, the perfect soul, hanging there, so I can be free, and know the depths of that love upon which I can trust my life.
In my heart I go to this place, the foot of the cross, to know my debt and His love, as this refreshes me.
How about you?
Or does this just appear a religious language with no real connection to your experience?
