It—the descent from heaven, the virgin conception, the birth in a manger, the attempt of Herod to have Him killed, the simple life as a carpenter’s son, the unbelief of the Jews despite the many miracles He performed, the persecution of the Pharisees, the betrayal of Judas, the denial of Peter, the whips and lashes, the crown of thorns, the crucifixion—is finished.
Jesus Christ successfully went through all those without hesitation or complaint, only with love, so that our sins might be forgiven, our filth might be cleansed, and our lives might be saved. Therefore, in view of the task He finished, let us decide to also finish the enemy’s grip in us by giving and uniting our lives to Jesus Christ—without hesitation or complaint, only with love.
