Thief in Paradise “YA-HOO!” — Luke 23:43

Gospel cartoon of thief on the cross now in paradise Luke 23:43

Luke 23:42-43

“Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

YA-HOO.

No class. No password. A dying man asked to be remembered.

The angels in the back with the question marks are us when grace is quicker than our system. We want a process. He gave a promise.

I may not be that thief on the cross guilty of terrible crimes, but I know who I am. I know I need Jesus to remember me and forgive me, though I am a sinner unworthy of Heaven.

Thank you, Jesus, for the gift of salvation from our sins, and the promise of Paradise when this life on Earth is done.
