Seven Words of Hope captures the seven last sayings of Jesus as He hung on Calvary’s cross.
“Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do”(Luke 23:34).
“Verily I say unto thee, today thou shalt be with me in paradise”(Luke 23:43).
“Woman behold thy son!” (John 19:26).
“My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” (Matthew 27:46).
“I thirst” (John 19:28).
“It is finished” (John 19:30).
“Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit” (Luke 23:46).
Each phrase, echoing through the centuries from a dying Savior, contains a message of hope for you and me. Listen as Christ cries with their heavenly Father, so He can come and take us home.
