Written by Rebekah Freed, a contemporary pastor.
The empty tomb is where the hope of new life is found, an important place as we journey through the toughest moments of life and death. However, at the cross we see God’s heart of love, a love that poured out and sacrificed EVERYTHING so that our suffering would be temporary in this life. We see, there at the cross, a God who is with us in our suffering and pain because He understands suffering and pain. We see at the cross that God can make beautiful things out of the most devastating and horrible situations… Easter is coming, but first, the cross.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. [John 13:34]
