I have been wanting to share this for a while but just now got the time and inclination to put it down into writing.
This is an experience that happened to me in the wee hours of the morning about four months ago when I was still living in Arkansas. It started with me asking the Father in prayer about the crucifixion of Jesus. Since I have come from a background seeped in human sacrifice and bloodshed I have always had a problem with the human sacrifice of Jesus. My prayer was to the affect of ‘Please explain this to me, where I can understand it, if you do not mind Lord.’ Thus He woke me up one morning and explained this to me in a way I could understand and only in a way He could do. So I shall try and relay this to you all with the best of my ability.
He showed me how we humans always need to see to believe. That was and still is why people of all religions tend to have so many icons and such of their chosen entities and symbols, etc..
Jesus came for a lot of things but one big reason was so man would have a visual contact of their God and Creator. I had never thought about that before and that made sense to me. Then I asked, ‘but why did you have to die like you did’? And this is how He explained it to me, in my words as I cannot really tell you in His.
He died to show us how far reaching His love was for us. Even though we basically rejected this humble God/Man and even though we tortured and killed Him, He still loves us and forgives us. Not only does He love and forgive us, He needed to show us that He really could not be killed and He is above all other gods. Because He is immortal, eternal and real, Jesus came to give us a visual of God the Creator and a way to touch and reach what we cannot grasp in our puny mortal minds. What God would let you not only try and kill him, but forgive you in the process? The only thing He asks of us is our love and by loving and forgiving others you love Him.
I hope I wrote this in a clear enough way for you all to understand. It was such an awesome experience I cannot really begin to write it out like it happened. My prayer is I at least did it justice and anyone who reads this is blessed by the words I have tried to write.
Love & Prayers,
Judy
