4th of July Eve

I turned on the television and my mom had it on TBN, which was airing The Passion of the Christ. I thought that was interesting pre-4th of July movie to air. I saw the movie in the theater, I was very moved by it, but knew it wasn’t a movie you threw in the VCR or DVD player when you wanted to chill and hang out. But since I hadn’t watched it in years and it was near the end, I thought I would watch it again.

The baby walked in as Jesus fell to the ground, carrying the cross.

“Mommy, who that?” she asked.

“Jesus,” I replied.

“That Jesus.”

“Yes.”

“Mommy, he hurt,” she stated with a sad look on her face.

“Yes, He is, baby,” I answered.

“Who hurt him?”

“I did. You did.”

“You hurt him?” she questioned.

“Yes, we all did,” I said. “Jesus died on the cross for our sins.”

We whipped Him, we crucified Him. He died for our sins. He did it all willingly because He love us.
