Sometimes my husband will send me inspirational quotes or sayings he finds online. One he sent me some time ago talked about how we should stop worrying and put everything in Christ’s hands. It said all was finished by Christ on the cross. As we prepare this week to celebrate Easter, let’s think about what Christ has finished for us.
Are you stressed about broken relationships, finances, or your health? When we place our stress in Christ’s hands, He sets us free from our burdens, and it is finished.
Worried about what the future holds, our country, or the state of the world? Christ already knows what will take place. He decided it. He holds you and your future. It is finished.
What shame or guilt are you still holding onto? When we turn to Him, He forgives. He accepted the punishment and paid the price for our sin. Your shame has been completely wiped away. You are clean and made whole. It is finished.
All darkness, problems, distresses, and heartaches of this broken world were conquered long ago when Christ died. While we may be in the thick of problems and pain in this life today, we are assured of how things will ultimately end. Christ has won the battle over all that is wrong. Christ finished it!
Dressed in Faith
When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
John 19:30
