Searching for the Historical Christ, photorealistic illustration generated using AI by Joshua.
What are the words that come to mind when you look at this image of Jesus?
Strength? Calm? Centredness? Determination? Something else?
As we prepare again to hear the story of Christ’s passion, of the injustice, the betrayal, and the suffering that he will endure, this picture reminds me that it will be ok. That Jesus has got this. That he is strong enough to carry all the heartbreak of the world. And through his love redeem it.
Jesus, saviour and redeemer,
help me this day to trust
in your strength.
Amen.
