To the dismayed and disappointed disciples making their way back home to Emmaus the Sunday afternoon following the crucifixion of Jesus, the resurrected Lord came alongside them and taught them all things concerning Himself from the scriptures beginning with Moses and the prophets. From scripture, He showed them how a crucified Messiah fulfilled all which had been written concerning His redemptive work as Immanuel (God with us). He opened their eyes to understand God’s salvation plan for fallen man and His role in completing that work. This daily devotional seeks to show how scripture reveals the Lord Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, and He stands at the crossroads between eternal life with God and eternal life separated from God. It is my sincerest prayer and desire that you will see His glory reflected in the scriptural texts for each day, the associated meditations of my heart, and be compelled to take up your cross and follow Him to victory and glory. “To my wife, Carol and sons: Thomas, Michael and Solomon. I would not have written this book were it not for you and our mutual loved ones.”

My name is Tomas Valentine. I was born October 18th, 1912. I died February 14th, 1934. How am I telling you this story? Because I didn't stay dead. Of course, there is a price to pay for a second chance. My body was taken from me and I was stripped of all my senses. I was no longer a man, but something that straddled the line between life and death. I would spend the next few months searching for a way to return to the life I once knew. I would encounter things that people only see in their nightmares, wrought by a man wrapped in shadows. Whoever he was, he'd made me this way, and he had all the answers. But if I knew then what I know now, I never would have asked the questions.
