Have you ever applied for a job and had to give your references to the potential employers? Have those employers actually followed up with your references? In those moments, the hope is that you chose the right people to speak on your behalf. After all, you did a great job and deserve a good reference. But what about when your performance was sub-par? Who will speak on your behalf then? Jesus! Jesus didn’t just claim victory over the grave and leave us to fend for ourselves against God’s judgement, but he continues to stand on our behalf even when we don’t always deserve it.
