Kindle Notes & Highlights
Jesus knows what it is to feel forsaken by God, and in his suffering Jesus uttered the bewildered Cry of Dereliction. But in his death Jesus committed his spirit into the hands of the Father he knows will never forsake him. Sometimes when we’ve done all we can do, there’s nothing more to be done than to put everything in the hands of the God who will never abandon us.
But Christ is never more Immanuel than when he is wrapped in grave clothes lying in the tomb.
Yes, Jesus Christ is God with us in birth and life, but he is also God with us in sorrow and death.
Is it not true that there is no higher priority than doing good works of justice?
