Darkness
A normal feature of life on earth. Varying lengths of darkness according to global position and seasons.
But.
Three hours of darkness in the middle of the day?
Impossible, most people would say.
However, when our Lord Jesus Christ was hanging on the Cross with death not far away, three hours of total darkness blotted out every trace of light.
Why?
The incredible answer I can’t ignore.
During those last three hours of his sinless life on earth, my precious Jesus was suffering the infinite darkness of his Holy Father’s judgment on sin - for my sake!
The Son of God was bearing the punishment that my sin deserved!
Oh, Jesus, precious Jesus!
‘Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned he stood,
Sealed my pardon with his blood:
Hallelujah, what a Saviour!’
Philip P. Bliss (1875)
