As we enter into the third month, it has got special significance in connection with lent and Passion Week. The observation of lent may bring us to the humility of Jesus Christ. He was even obedient unto the death on the cross for the sins of the world (sins of every individual). His expression of love on the cross is magnificent and our minds cannot comprehend it because the love of Jesus Christ towards each one of us is so wide and so deep. The sufferings of Christ will remind us one thing that He took the cross up to Calvary so that we may escape out of the shame and punishment on the Judgment day. He taught humbleness by washing the feet of His disciples. The public expression of His humbleness was carrying the cross publicly. Though His death on the cross was a cruel one, but it has given us the eternal salvation because He shed His last drop of blood at Calvary so that we may have victory over our sins. The burial of Christ is so significant to our Christian life that one day we all have to leave from this world. But the resurrection of Christ is the hope of each and every individual who believes in Christ that even if he die, he also would resurrect just like Jesus Christ has risen from the death.
Let us meditate on the sufferings, crucification, burial and resurrection of Christ during this month for our self cleansing and let us lead a holy life which will be pleasing our risen Lord.
Peace and Grace e with you
Rev. Alex O Korulla
