50And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.
We recently celebrated the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior as well as Passover. Did you know that we are spiritual beings? Our physical body houses our spirit. How so? Not to be morbid, but have you ever seen a dead body? It is lifeless. What gives the body life? It is the spirit. Jesus "gave up" his spirit. He willingly died and committed his spirit to God the Father. It is the "spirit" of a person that we come to know and love. The physical body is just a shell. If we only take notice of a person's physical body, then we miss the core of who they are. If all you see is a physical body and never come to know a person's spirit, then you can't say you really know the person. But the question then becomes to whom is your spirit committed? Jesus, God in the form of the Son, committed His spirit back to God the Father who is the source of all. There is only one of two places to where a person can commit their spirit. It is either to our Heaven (our Lord) or Hell (Satan is real). Where your spirit is committed while you're here on earth determines where your spirit will reside once your physical body can no longer hold it. So again, to where and to whom is your spirit committed? If you're unsure make a decision because you don't know when your spirit will be recalled from your physical body.
P.S. Hopefully everyone was in reflection over this last week. God wants to know will you seek Him or does He always have to chase you. Please check out my girl Stubbs on www.live365.com/
