About This Quote

Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on the cross. He made all creation witness to the presence of its Maker. This idea that Jesus Christ was present throughout all of creation is very inspiring. Christians believe that God is involved in everything that happens in our world, so it makes sense that everything would be influenced by God.

The image of Jesus hanging on the cross for hours, enduring pain and suffering, looking out towards heaven and reaching out to us is extremely powerful. It reminds us that although we are weak ourselves, God is stronger than anything else.
