Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross
From the preface of Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross: Experiencing the Passion and Power of Easter:
Oh, what we miss out on when we rush past the cross of Christ. Oh, the richness and reward when we stop to linger before it, when we take the time to “consider him who endured from sinners such hostility toward himself” (Heb. 12:3)…
How we need to have our hearts broken again by our sin that put Jesus on the cross. How we need to have our confidence grounded by what Jesus accomplished on the cross. And how we need to have our hope anchored in the promise of resurrection.
