John 19:25
This devotional is written by Michelle Medlock Adams, Secrets of Beauty. When I read the hopelessly devoted title I thought of Grease, then I read the devotional, and it mentioned the movie. How Olivia Newton John sings of Sandy’s devotion to John Travolta’s Danny. Then Ms. Adams turns it to Christ.
The scripture, says that the three Mary’s all stood at the foot of Jesus on the cross, that even though they were putting themselves in danger, they stood in the open, to let everyone know that they stood with Christ.
This really made me think. In today’s world. Saying you’re a christian, is like to go to line. Like well I’m better than most. But many just use that saying as a crutch–especially in political ads–but not many will stand at the cross. It’s something that I don’t get. It’s been a message in the church, those who say they go there, but yet their spot is empty.
So today my devotional to you, whoever you are, are you hopelessly devoted to our Savior. Are you standing at the foot of his cross, no matter what might happen to your life? Are you like Mary? Are you willing to hold on to your faith, your belief?
