I know this picture is a little more on the dramatic side than what I usually post, but I was reminded last night what our Saviour did for us on the cross.
Ever since I was a little girl I have had vivid dreams. A lot of times my dreams are more real than life itself. And last night, I had a dream of a young boy going through something similar as Christ did on the cross. But when I woke up, with tears in my eyes, I remembered that no matter how much pain that boy was in or the suffering he went through, it was nothing compared to what our Saviour experienced.
Not only did Jesus go through torture and the cross, but he went through the emotional suffering of being separated from God, his Father, by taking all our sins upon himself. He was not only taking the punishment for one person, but for all. I will never fully understand what he went through that day at Calvary. And when I woke up in the middle of the night from that dream, I was reminded how blessed I truly am for having a Saviour that loves me enough to die for me.
