His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations. Psalm 100:5, NKJV
Jesus died…on purpose. No surprise. No hesitation. No faltering…
The journey to the cross didn’t begin in Jericho. It didn’t begin in Galilee. It didn’t begin in Nazareth. It didn’t even begin in Bethlehem. The journey to the cross began long before. As the echo of the crunching of the fruit was still sounding in the garden, Jesus was leaving for Calvary.
