30 Day Challenge

Here is a challenge for you to take. For the next 30 days I challenge you to read the crucifixion account. You can read it as an augment to your daily devotions or you can make it your daily devotions. I have been doing this for about a week now and I have made it my daily devotions. While you are doing this I want you to make it a point everyday to tell yourself, "He did that for me." I know this, I have only been doing this for a week and it has changed my behaviors. I started to find that as I would go through my day and I would be tempted to sin that the Holy Spirit would remind me about the cross. It is so humbling to be reminded about the cross whenever I sin! The thought has crossed my mind so many times since I've started this that the one little sin that I commit, whether it be a little white lie or a covetous thought, was all it took to hang Jesus onto that cross. So I challenge you, read the crucifixion account for the next thirty days, but don't just read it, let it bathe you so that as you go about your day it will drip off every word you say, thought you think, and thing you do. And comment to me and tell me how it affects your walk. Christ's death is such a deep story full of love, mercy, and holiness. It should never be forgotten, even by those who claim it belongs to them.
