We rejoice in Christ's resurrection, but we do not rush on to His
resurrection without turning our thoughts to His crucifixion. His
resurrection has no meaning without His crucifixion. Before there could
be His resurrection, there needed to be His crucifixion. Before He
could be raised from death to life, He needed to die. He died for us -
then, He was raised for us. In His suffering for our sins, He prayed,
"My God, my God, why have You forsaken Me?" As we learn to appreciate
the wonder of what He has done for us in His death, our joy will
increase, when we hear the words, "He has risen."
