Inktober 52, Week 6: “Skull”

The skull has so much symbolism attached to it. It signifies death, mortality, humanity, history…but for the Christian, it also brings to mind another scene. A hill called “Golgotha” which means the “place of the skulls”. The death of Christ. His sacrifice on our behalf.

His words “it is finished”. The death toll on that hill of death, that sounded over death itself. The empty tomb that would follow. The promise to never leave. And the hope of the life to come. For the person trusting in Christ, the skull is a symbol not of death, but of death’s defeat.
