Daily Devotional with Max Lucado
“The One who came still comes and the One who spoke still speaks”
God is great, and worth a thousand Hallelujahs. - Psalm 96:4 (THE MESSAGE)
Never did the obscene come so close to the holy as it did on Calvary. Never did the good in the world so intertwine with the bad as it did on the cross. Never did what is right involve itself so intimately with what is wrong, as it did when Jesus was
suspended between heaven and earth.
God on a cross.
Humanity at its worst.
Divinity at its best.
Everyday Blessing
