In the South it’s not uncommon to hear these three words as a response to just about anything good. “Glory to God” covers everything from finding a gas station when a car’s tank is on empty to locating a restroom when a child’s bladder is full.

“It is finished.”

With these words Jesus declared His work on earth was done.  Three days later, with the miracle of His resurrection, humanity’s redemption was complete.  This is the unfathomable expression of God’s love we celebrate this week as Easter approaches.  It was a perfect sacrifice by a perfect Person to perfect some very imperfect people.
