All On Jesus

What do you do with your sin and guilt? How do you cope with your conscience and the consequences of all you have done wrong?
God has set us free from all our misdeeds by taking them all on himself. Jesus received all we deserved upon himself when he died for us.
God spoke through the Prophet Isaiah about his son Jesus’ sacrifice, saying, “But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5, ESV).
We can have God’s peace through having our punishment and consequences placed upon Jesus on the cross. Jesus took on all our sin, guilt, and consequences on the cross.
May we experience the peace of God in the forgiveness of our sin through Jesus’s sacrifice on our behalf.
A Collect for Friday of Easter Week: “Almighty Father, who gave your only Son to die for our sins and to rise for our justification: Give us grace so to put away the leaven of malice and wickedness, that we may always serve you in purity of life; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
