Day 10

I want you to look inside. Who is the person you most actively admire? Is it Jesus? Let’s admit that it is hard to “fix our eyes on Jesus” because he is not here where we can see him like our other earth-bound heroes. Jesus is, however, the ultimate adventurer, trailblazer, and superhero. He faced the horrific penalty and shame of the cross, taking away all of our sins! He did it so that we could have a hero that death and sin could not destroy, mar, or taint. He did it so that we could be confident that if we follow in his footsteps, the trail he blazed wasn’t just for him but also for all of us who follow him! “Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2”
