April 2: It is Finished

After this, aware that everything was now finished,
in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled,
Jesus said, “I thirst.”
There was a vessel filled with common wine.
So they put a sponge soaked in wine on a sprig of hyssop
and put it up to his mouth.
When Jesus had taken the wine, he said,
“It is finished.”
And bowing his head, he handed over the spirit.

Take 10 minutes to read over this Scripture passage and reflect on it. Ask Jesus to give you a glimpse of what He was going through just before He died. Imagine the scene in your mind. Thank Him for loving us all the way till the end. Thank Him for not giving up on us.
