So here we are on the brink of Holy week again, and I can’t help but think of Jesus Christ our Lord. I have to acknowledge all the many blessings I am standing on and walking in because of the great measure of His love for His Father and for me. 

Like Paul I don’t want to take away from His focus by sending you my thoughts, except to ask that you join me in worshiping Him in the beauty of Holiness.
I commend to you these verses from his Word:

• Mat 27:45  Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.


• Mat 27:46  And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?


• Mat 27:47  Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.



• Mat 27:48  And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.



• Mat 27:49  The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.


• Mat 27:50  Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.


• Mat 27:51  And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;


• Mat 27:52  And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,


• Mat 27:53  And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.


• Mat 27:54  Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.


• 1Co 15:2  By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.


• 1Co 15:3  For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;


• 1Co 15:4  And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:


• 1Co 15:5  And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:


• 1Co 15:6  After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.


• 1Co 15:7  After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.


• 1Co 15:8  And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.

What can we say in the face of such love at this moment but “Jesus we are thinking of You!”

“It’s just a thought!
