Grace for your spirit
And all the people said, "His blood shall be on us and on our children!" Matthew 27:25
When the enemies of Jesus were pushing to crucify Jesus, in the heat of the moment they blurted out, "Let His blood be on us." In other words, they would take responsibility. Not many days later, after His death, burial, and resurrection, the apostles preached against them. In Acts 5:28, the Council objected saying, "you intend to bring this man's blood upon us." The Jews were bold to claim responsibility, but not anxious to take it. Let's think carefully about the words we speak, keeping them soft and sweet. We never know when we might have to eat them.
