Is the journey to the Cross our stairway to Heaven?

Is the journey to the Cross our stairway to Heaven? We were never meant to live unfallen; we were always meant to live with God himself.

Is the journey to the Cross our stairway to Heaven?

We need to be reminded of the promise of Jesus from the cradle to the grave to Heaven because not only has Jesus saved us in this life, but his death and Resurrection changed the course of mankind’s eternal destiny. It is here where we find Heaven’s celestial stairs.

Reflect-

Reflect on the one (Holy) week that changed the world. The week started with joy and praise and ended with Jesus on the Cross—every moment from innocence to betrayal to shouts of crucify him—nails hammering, blood spilling, thorns tearing, linen hanging, and women weeping as the sky darkened. The earth quaked, the temple rumbled as the veil tore, and God in the flesh died a human death.

Imagine-

Imagine the sorrow of Jesus’ mother, disciples, and followers. It was as if all creation held its breath for three days, which is what it is like today, isn’t it? We have Good Friday, and while we may be finalizing weekend plans or at a lunch spot with friends, we feel the gravity of God’s love for us. Then, on Saturday, we wait, and although we are planning our menus, preparing Easter baskets, or dying eggs, we know what this Saturday really is. It is the day that we wait. We wait in anticipation as our sorrow turns into joy, like the night before Christmas (we know what is coming).
