cornerstone

But he looked directly at them and said, “What then is this that is written:

“‘The stone that the builders rejected

has become the cornerstone’?

Luke 20:17

Ridiculed and mocked by those in power…

Rejected by Your own people…

Humiliating display as You died publicly…

Nobody believed any life should be built on You.

Even Your own disciples tried to hide…

No one beside You as You were crucified hideously…

Darkness fell around the world as creation was in horror…

Nobody came to stop this atrocity of grace.

Yet even as Your Father turned away…

As Your body was buried in a borrowed stone grave…

This injustice seen to all would never stay that way…

Nobody was ready for the power of Your new day!

A stone rolled from death’s blocked door…

And You made from a cold tomb a warm, new life entrance…

And now in salvation full and eternally sure…

The Cornerstone, Jesus Christ, holds up the way to amazing eternal life!
