Day 42: John 19-21

As we wrap up John's Gosepl, he concludes with the Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus. I love the way that we see the Providence of God's hand all over these pages of Scripture. Beginning in John 19:32, it says, that the soldiers broke the legs of the two men on each side of Jesus as was cumtomary during crucifixions. But when they came to Jesus, He was already dead. So they pierced His side. When He was pierced, blood and water flowed out. John 19:36 says, "These things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: "Not one of His bones will be broken."

God aways fulfills His Word and His promises! As I think about about this powerful truth, I'm reminded that the same God in the pages of John's Gospel is fulfilling His Word and promises in the lives of those who follow Him.
