The View From The Criminal's Cross

It’s hard to look at the artwork that depicts Jesus handing on the cross with the two criminals on either side. Like John the disciple, Jesus’ mother, and the women, we are observers who can only look up in tears to watch what unfolds. But imagine what the view was like from up on the cross itself and looking down. Three individuals that day had this unique view. Faith enables you and me to see beyond our circumstances. You may only see your sin, guilt and shame. The reality is that your Savior is right by your side as well.
