In Good Hands

As we go to the Cross, we recall that the Gospels record the “seven last words” of Jesus from the Cross. When we study these statements, we begin to comprehend, better perhaps than in any other biblical account, the very heart of God. The final word from the Cross is one of the greatest words of all. It is a prayer and this prayer is the very essence of the Christian life. It is about surrender. Jesus prayed “Into Thy hands, I commit My Spirit,” that is, “I surrender all.” As we learn to surrender our all to the Lord Jesus Christ, we just extend our arms and surrender all that we are to Him. He will catch us every time.

Thank God today that the Christian life is not about “trying” to be a Christian, or working harder, or doing anything – it is about surrender. When we surrender our all to God, we can know without a doubt that we are in good hands.
