And the world waits... We wait in anticipation , in hope, in humble expectation of what is to come.
We wait in final preparations for that which has been promised to us. For the past forty days we fasted, and sought, prayed and offered up, ridding our souls of everything that kept us bound.
And then the great Tridiuum- where we layed everything
down, allowing Him to wash our feet, çleansing us of anything and everything that might seperate us from him. Friday he leaves us with a new commandment, 'love them as I have loved you ,' as our Saviour hung on two wooden beams. Love was his driving force . It wasn't because of who you are, who you aren't, what you've done, or what you haven't done. He didn't do it bc of what we have or own, or what we don't have. It was pure and simple, he did it out of his love for us.
While we were sinners. He isn't impressed by how much money we make or how many cars we own- he's interested in the salvation of our souls.
What went through his mind as he willingly submitted himself to public humiliation , torture, and eventually immenent death?
So we wait..…sorrowful but hopeful. Like cisterns, we have been emptied out and broken, yet here we wait . For what exactly ?? Only time will tell...
