Lent Day 37: The Book of Hebrews
God says, see Jesus, still incarnate as a human but no longer on earth, still the crucified One with nail-scarred hands and feet but no longer on the cross, still resurrected but no longer visible among you, and still ascended but no longer ascending through the devil-filled heavens.
See Jesus where He is right now.
Where He is when you awake in a cold sweat at two in the morning.
Where He is when you're alone in a hotel room and tempted to watch what should never cross your eyes.
Where He is when you've been devastated by loss or rejection.
Where He is when your failure has brought you into the depths of despair.
My Son energizes you to reveal My goodness by the way you relate during difficult times.
He nourishes you, generating strength for you to believe, wait, and love.
