3 A word of ıntroduction In the UK, Easter is marked by an extended, Bank Holiday weekend. Many people take advantage of this break to escape to warmer climes or to complete long overdue DIY projects. And then there are all the Easter traditions. Different countries, cultures and communities have their own customs from dousing each other with water to flying kites; from egg rolling to egg hunting and eating! Yet amidst the frenetic activity, and even with a packed programme of church events, I fear that I have become too familiar with the Easter story itself, that awe-inspiring moment when eternity broke into time. And it was so much more than a one-off event in history its effects reverberate today and will do so forever. The cross of Jesus is more than just a place of peace and refuge; Christ endured the cross that we might truly live. This issue of Every Day with Jesus focuses entirely on the cross, and my prayer for us all in the coming months is best summed up in the words of this song: May I never lose the wonder, the wonder of the cross. May I see it like the first time, standing as a sinner lost. Undone by mercy and left speechless watching wide-eyed at the cost, May I never lose the wonder, the wonder of the cross. 1 May we never lose the wonder of the cross. Sincerely yours, in His name Mick Brooks Consulting Editor Free small-group resources to accompany this issue can be found at 1. Vicky Beeching, extract from The Wonder of the Cross, copyright 2007 Thankyou Music. See title page for full details.
4 Three days long ago For reading and meditation 1 Corinthians 15: Christ died for our sins... he was buried... he was raised on the third day... (vv.3 4) Our theme to cover this Easter season is centred on the events that happened to Jesus during those three momentous days in Jerusalem long ago. Over the years, I have looked at the Easter story from many different perspectives, and the one I have chosen on this occasion is to explore it as providing us with the anchor points we need to hold us fast in the midst of life s storms. The idea came to me while reading Max Lucado s book Six Hours One Friday, in which he tells of several young men who were spending a few days vacation on a houseboat on the Miami River in Florida. On the radio they heard that a hurricane Hurricane David was about to devastate their area, so they set about the task of tying the houseboat to some trees that skirted the bank. An experienced sailor came by and said: Tying your houseboat to the land is not going to help. The wind will whip the trees out of their sockets and you will be in trouble. Your only hope is to anchor deep. Put out anchors in all directions, leave the rope slack... and pray. They did as he suggested and, fortunately for them, when Hurricane David was 30 minutes away, it took a different turn and missed them. The chances are that many reading these lines are caught in a storm, or are about to be, and so it is absolutely imperative that you anchor your life to the cross and resurrection. In those three days God provided some anchor points that will, if you know how to use them, hold you safe and secure in any storm. Three days. Not long enough for a man to build a house, but long enough for God to lay down some points to which you can hook your anchors and ride out every storm. My Father and my God, may the wonder of all that You did for me at Calvary and the resurrection come home afresh to me as I contemplate once again the Easter story. Give me a new glimpse of Your glory I pray. In Jesus name. Amen. Thurs 1 Mar Further Study Acts 2:22 24,41; 17: What was the focus of Peter and Paul s messages? 2. What were the results?
5 Fri 2 Mar We continue thinking about the cross and resurrection as providing us with the anchor points we need to hold us fast in the midst of life s storms and difficulties. The Easter story can be looked at from many angles, and those who have been reading Every Day with Jesus for some years will recollect that I have commented on the events that we celebrate at this season in many different ways. This time, however, I feel impressed to view the cross and resurrection not from a theological perspective alone (there will be something of that), but as a bedrock to which Further Study Psa. 42:1 11; Isa. 4: Describe the emotions of the psalmist. 2. Where is our refuge in the storms of life? Fixed! For reading and meditation Psalm 112: a righteous man will... have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lo r d. (vv.6 7) we can attach our anchors when the tidal waves of adversity roll over us. There is nothing that can turn black and white theology into technicolour, says one writer, as much as problems. Some years ago I got caught in a personal storm when my wife died after years of suffering with cancer. There was no time to sit and philosophise on the mystery of pain and suffering. No time to meditate on the great truths, such as the sovereignty of God. There was time only to drop the anchors, sit tight, and hope they would hold. I am glad to tell you they did. I wonder, am I talking now to someone who is in the midst of a spiritual storm or perhaps just about to enter one? Naturally, you want to know that when you drop your anchors they will fasten to some solid point. If an anchor point is not found then it is possible that the hull of your heart will be splintered. I tell you with all the conviction of which I am capable that when you understand what God did for you on that first Easter, never again will your anchors drag through the sand. You will be fixed to the things that are fixed! O God, unveil to my understanding the significance of those three days long ago so that I might be able to drop my anchors into the depths of the encouraging and reassuring revelation. This I ask in Jesus name. Amen.
6 Calvary a fixed point For reading and meditation Acts 27:27 38 Fearing that we would be dashed against the rocks, they dropped four anchors... and prayed for daylight. (v.29) Yesterday we ended with a thought be fixed to the things that are fixed. Permit me to follow that idea a little further. Mariners know that when a strong wind threatens to batter their boat against the rocks, the best thing to do is not to prevaricate, but to drop anchor. And the best anchor points are the ones that are sunk deeply in solid bedrock. A boat (or ship) may be held steady in a calm sea by simply dropping the anchor into the sand, but when the wind escalates to gale or hurricane force then the anchor needs to grip something more solid and secure. We see from our passage today that when the boat on which the apostle Paul was sailing was about to be dashed on the rocks, the crew did not just hope for the best, but dropped four anchors... and prayed for daylight. They knew that when the anchors gripped something strong and solid, the boat would be able to ride out the storm. They were fixed to the things that were fixed. This is what we must learn to do when, with titanic fury, the storms of life break upon us we must hold fast to the things that are fixed. Further Study 1 Cor. 10:1 4; Heb. 6: How is Christ described? 2. What is an anchor of the soul? The cross is a fixed point; an anchor point sunk in solid bedrock. The gospel is not the invention of the last century; it is the message once delivered to the saints, and for 2,000 years men and women have found it to hold them fast. Many a storm has beaten upon it. There have been dark ages in which only a few have fastened themselves to it, and multitudes perished because they passed it by. Still it stands! Still it serves! And those who cast their anchor at its base will, as the Scripture says, never be put to shame (1 Pet. 2:6). Sat 3 Mar O Father, my spirit responds with joy to the truth that no matter what storms may sweep into my life, I have a safe and secure anchor point in Calvary s cross. All honour and glory be to Your name for ever. Amen.
