A Starlit Embrace
“Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”—Matthew 2:2 (NIV)
Forgive, and you will be forgiven.—Luke 6:37 (NIV)
Today, on Good Friday, reflect on Jesus on the cross. Despite all He had been through, He asked for mercy and forgiveness for those who crucified Him. Are you able to pray for the people who cause you pain? A true pathway to a peaceful heart is to ask God for help in showing compassion to your adversaries.
Lord, thank You for Your infinite love expressed through Christ on the cross. Lead me to be a vessel of Your healing in this hurting world.

Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.”—John 6:35 (NIV)
