Topic: FINISHED (04/09/20)
From the beginning God had a plan. He knew, that along the way, no matter how hard man tried to obey His commandments that we would fail. So He provided a sacrificial Lamb, but not like in days of old. No longer would going to Jerusalem with your offering meet the requirement. No the sacrificial Lamb came in the form of a man. This man, known as the Son of God, Messiah, Jesus Christ, Yeshua, became the Lamb, who willing went to the the cross and became that sacrifice for us.
By the shedding of His blood He bore our sins and sicknesses. On that day at Golgotha His final words were; “When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.” John 19:30 ESV
“It is finished” really wasn’t the end. It was just the beginning. You see His going to the cross for us enabled Him to take away our guilt and give us life. It was a gift we did not deserve. The gift of Grace.
Then three days later He arose from the grave and went back to the Father where He now intervenes on our behalf. It came full circle. He lived, died and lives again just so that we can have eternal life.
When I realize how incredible all of that was it is mind blowing! Then I remember that nothing is impossible for my God. Amen!

I am so glad we don't need to kill animals for sacrifice!

Take the passion that shines through this article and make the story uniquely yours. Start with your ending. SHOW the reader something that you faced - that seemed completely impossible. Use that as your hook, with active, not passive verbs. Continue on to the crucifixion story and end with your statement how ALL is possible with God ... THAT is your "Full Circle"! Blessings and keep 'scribbling'! Scribes have an important message of faith for a searching world!
