Dear Lord,

Not even those who mocked you could deny the impact of your death. Even the gentiles who mocked and beat you bowed their knees once they saw. No one can deny the power of your sacrifice, Lord. 

Father in heaven, thank you for Jesus. Thank you for the ultimate sacrifice. 

Forgive us for when we mock you with doubt. Forgive us for when we grieve your spirit with sin. Even on this side of the cross, we fail. Thank you that our salvation is not up to us for we would surely perish!

We love you, Lord!

Amen
