This Holy Week, may we meditate on the thirst our Savior endured for us. This painting by Rubens is powerful. It doesn’t just paint the moment Jesus is taken down from the cross—he slows it down, softens it, and lets us feel the weight of it. Every hand, every fold of cloth, every beam of light invites us to consider not just what happened, but what it means to carry Christ even now.
Worn Out and Tired: Devotion for March 23
In Ephesians, God says that we are his masterpiece. Isn’t it good to know that something worn down by life is, most certainly, still a masterpiece, like these boots?
