Devotional
Sometimes we minimize our need for salvation, thinking we’re “not that bad.” Other times, we feel so overwhelmed by our failures that we question if we’re worthy of love at all. The truth lies in a beautiful paradox: we are far worse sinners than we realize, yet far more loved than we could ever imagine. Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross reveals both the depth of our sin and the height of God’s love. His death wasn’t just about taking our punishment – it was about giving us His righteousness. This amazing exchange transforms how we see ourselves and how we approach God.
Bible Verse
“When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right and one on his left.” – Luke 23:33
