The Cup of the Wrath of God That Will Never Touch Our Lips
“He began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed”—Matthew 26:37 Sorrow and deep distress marked the inner spirit of Jesus as He entered into prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane. This moment marked a time of intense agony for Him. He was nearing the climax of His Great Passion. The Great Passion of Jesus was the focal point of His divine vocation. No one was ever called by God to greater suffering than that suffering to which ...

The Valley of the Shadow of Death
There is a path that must be journeyed for every Christian. There is a life that must be lived. There is a race that must be run. All of which must be done within the valley, the valley of the shadow of death. There is no other path toward the Celestial city but this. All must go through this valley. But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who ...

I Have Fought the Good Fight, Finished the Race, Kept the Faith.
We will never know what life has in store for us in any given year, in any given month, in any given day. Severe trials may overtake us when we least expect them. When times of joy are circling around us, suddenly tragedy occurs. How many of us would be able to confess with the dear apostle the very same words: "I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race. I have kept ...

The Blessed Vocation of Death.
It is human nature to fear death, to dread even the thought of death. But for a Christian, I think there are only a precious few subjects that would delight the soul other than the prospect of death. But sadly, and quite tragically, many of us, even those who count themselves in Christ, see death as still a most hateful thing. They cannot imagine it. They cannot comprehend it. It's pains and terrible agonies. Many ...

Surprised by Suffering
My eyes were riveted to the clock on the waiting room wall. It was a sterile timepiece, one designed for pure utility. It had no ornamentation; it added nothing to the warmth of the room. Its sole purpose was to display the current moment in world history. Behind closed doors people were suspended in time. For some, the minutes that were passing were the final minutes of life. I was among those waiting. Families were gathered in ...

For Three Days the World Was Plunged into Darkness
As promised, we continue our reflections on the death, burial and resurrection of our dear Lord and Savior, the God-man, Christ Jesus. Please read closely and read prayerfully as you peruse this short devotion. I think it's a woeful experience that every Christian goes through, the realization of how ice cold his heart has become. Dear reader, let us quit ourselves like men and cast off to the sea of the glory of God in ...
