God on the Cross - the peak of creation

There are many things we do not know about God’s creation. But there is something we do know. He did it with a smile. He must have a blast.  What a time He must have had. He must have loved every bit of it. He must have poured Himself into the work that He took a day off at the end of the week to rest.

On the sixth day, He made man. He began with a useless mound of dirt and ended up with an invaluable specie called human who has the honor to bear the stamp, “In His Image” and that wasn’t the finale.

The devil of the snake feeds man a line and an apple. Gullible Adam swallowed them both. Adam’s act of rebellion triggers in motion a dramatic and erratic courtship between God and man. God, the compassionate creator woos His creation. Man, His creation, alternately, reaches out in repentance and runs away in rebellion.

Near the climax of the story, God made a move which surprised everyone. He became man.

I have not seen such a determination.  If one thing does not work, He tried another. If one approach failed, He would try another one. God’s mind never stopped.

And now comes the peak of His creation – God on the Cross. The Creator being sacrifice for His creation.

Once and for all, God convinces man that forgiveness still follows failure.

I wonder what was in Christ’s mind while hanging on the Cross.  I guess nobody knows.  But I know what He said: “It is finished!”

The mission was finished. All the Creator needed to do was done.
