讀經：約翰福音十九章。
默想：「他們就在那裡（各各他山丘上）釘祂在十字架上。」（約19:18）
默想一：誰是釘死耶穌的人？是彼拉多巡撫嗎？是羅馬兵丁嗎？是猶太公會嗎？還是當時莽撞的群眾？是世人包括你我的罪把祂釘死了，我們才是當為耶穌的死負責的人！祂忍受罪人的頂撞，叫你我能得神的悅納；祂暫時被神離棄，好叫你我能永遠與神和好；祂死在十字架上，叫你我能永活在天上。神恩如此浩大，世上還有什麼愛比這更大呢？
默想二：主耶穌如此受苦、受難、受死，主要是告訴我們什麼？一面向人說出，神是公義的，祂要追討人的罪。另一面又向人說明，神是愛，祂以獨生兒子耶穌為代價，使人藉著祂在十字架上的犧牲得蒙救贖。神的公義與大愛都在這被釘在十字架上的耶穌彰顯得完美。
禱告：主耶穌，感謝祢在十字架上所成就的厚恩。袮因我的罪，才受到這種殘酷的待遇。你若非愛我，又何必受十架的苦難？在默念祢的受難時，求祢的真光照亮我心，讓我明白祢的愛。也求祢牽引我的手，我願與祢同走十字架的路，一生榮耀祢的名。奉祢寶貴的名禱告，阿們！
Bible Reading: John 19.
Insight: “There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.” (John 19:18)
Insight 1: Who was the person that crucified Jesus? Was it governor Pilate? Was it a Roman soldier? Was it the Jewish synagogue? Or was it the reckless crowd? It was the sins of the world, including you and me, that crucified Him, and we are the ones responsible for Jesus’ crucifixion! He endured the hostility of sinners so that you and I could be acceptable to God; He was temporarily abandoned by God so that you and I could be reconciled to God forever; He died on the cross so that you and I could live forever in heaven. God’s grace is so great, is there any love in this world can be greater than this love?
Insight 2: As the Lord Jesus suffered, crucified, and died, what does this have taught us? On the one hand, He declared to people that God is righteous and He will pursue people’s sins. On the other hand, He elucidated to people that God is love. He paid the price of His only begotten son, Jesus, to redeem people through His sacrifice on the cross. God’s justice and love have made perfect through crucified Jesus.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank You for Your bountiful grace on the cross. You were treated so cruelly because of my sin. If You don’t love me, why should You suffer on the cross? As I meditate on Your suffering, please shine on my heart with Your true light and let me understand Your love. Please also hold my hand. I would like to walk the path of the cross with You, glorifying Your name throughout my life. I pray in Your precious name, Amen!
