From Our Daily Bread

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
1 John 1:9

If you’ve ever heard the expression “albatross around my neck”—a phrase referring to a tiresome burden—you’ve heard an allusion to English poet Samuel Coleridge’s famous poem “Rime of the Ancient Mariner.”
In the poem, a sailor shoots and kills a harmless, friendly albatross. The crew believes the mariner’s cruel deed curses their voyage and forces him to wear the dead bird around his neck as punishment.
Are there regrets in your life that feel like a heavy weight around your neck? All of us have moments we’d do anything to take back. It can feel like we’re cursed to carry the weight of our guilt and regret forever.
Yet God’s grace can free our hearts from even the most painful regret. We all have sin, but when we honestly confess our burdens to God, we’re promised he “will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness”. As His grace rushes in, His light and love can flow through us, freeing us to love those around us.

In Coleridge’s poem, the tormented mariner also eventually experiences this grace. When love for God’s creation rushes into his heart and compels him to pray, the albatross falls off his neck, vanishing forever “like lead into the sea.”

Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who formed it to establish it the LORD is his name,
Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.

From Our Daily Bread:

We have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
2 Corinthians 4:7

After Joni Eareckson Tada’s mother died, Joni thought about how our bodies are like “jars of clay” that hold the treasure of Christ’s presence. She mused about a modern equivalent to describe our earthly bodies—a cardboard box.
She knew her mother’s “box,” with its worn-out corners and bends, was now empty. But, she reflected, it was a box they’d treasured, “the vessel in which the treasure of the Spirit of Christ had dwelt.”
As Joni notes, those who follow Jesus let Him shine through them, often in spectacular ways through the creases and holes as their boxes collapse with age. In this she followed Paul’s words about the treasure appearing in “jars of clay” because it would reveal that “this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us” (2 Corinthians 4:7).
Although Paul was “hard pressed” and “perplexed” with what he suffered, he was not “crushed” or “destroyed” (vv. 8-9). Through his sufferings in his body, he knew that Christ’s life would be revealed.
How’s your cardboard “box”? You might feel the creases grow larger as you groan under the weight of pain or disease.
Know, however, that Jesus is being revealed in your body (v. 10). As you submit to Him, He’ll shine His light through you, so that those who are in darkness may receive His love and His life.
By Amy Boucher Pye

How have you seen Jesus revealed in others?
Why do you think God encloses His presence in these “jars of clay”?
Spirit of the living God, please live in me, that I might shine with Your love and presence.

"How does the thief on the cross fit into your theology?
No baptism, no communion, no confirmation, no speaking in tongues, no mission trip, no volunteerism, no financial gifts, and no church clothes. He couldn't even bend his knees to pray. He didn't say the sinner's prayer and among other things, he was a thief.
Jesus didn't take way his pain, heal his body, or smite his scoffers.
Yet, it was a thief who walked into paradise the same hour as Jesus simply by believing. He had nothing more to offer other than his belief that Jesus was who He said He was.
No spin from brilliant theologians.
No ego or arrogance.
No shiny lights, skinny jeans, or crafty words.
No haze machine, donuts, or coffee in the lobby.
Just a naked dying man on a cross unable to even fold his hands to pray."
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son so that WHOEVER believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life.
That is Gospel (Good News). Complex but that simple!

The pain and anguish the disciples felt must have been horiffic after watching the suffering and death of Jesus.
The Pharisees continued their accusations that Jesus was a liar and not the Messiah.

Matthew 27:62-66 NKJV~
On the next day, which followed the Day of Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered together to Pilate, saying,
“Sir, we remember, while He was still alive, how that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise.’ Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night and steal Him away, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ So the last deception will be worse than the first.”
Pilate said to them,
“You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you know how.” So they went and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone and setting the guard.
