"He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities." (Isaiah 53:11, KJV)

How could an eternity of debt be expunged by Jesus, the Christ, during a finite number of hours, during one weekend 2000 years ago? (This one is fairly easy to answer. Just respond using the flawless Character of our loving Lord as your tool.)

I think you answered your own question. All one has to do is respond in obedience to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. As to how a sacrifice made by one man on a cross two thousand years ago could atone for every sin in the history of mankind, I think one needs to understand who Jesus was. Jesus was not an ordinary man. He was indeed 100% human but He was also 100% God. Essentially, God Himself died as a substitute for man. Nobody has to face the horrors of Hell because God Himself died to prevent us from doing so. Somebody asked me once how a loving God could send anybody to Hell. My answer is that God condemns nobody to Hell. Many people will condemn themselves to Hell because they choose to disrespect the sacrifice God made for them and they choose to reject Jesus.

Surreal Flash #poem  (E) Life gives us all kind of teachings, messages. We need to trust our heart. #2242903 by Ilaya

Write about surreal.

Surreal is a state in which things seem real when they are not. I have seen a lot of moments that were surreal. It is like an altered state of reality in which things seem okay but in reality they are not okay. Love can be surreal. One thinks they are in love but the honeymoon passes and the relationship falls apart.

"Prompt: Use these words in today's entry: groundhog, spring, shadow, hope, snow, flowers, lavender."

The groundhog saw his shadow. No hope of early spring. There is snow on the ground. The flowers cannot grow.
The scent of lavender will not be around.

"Prompt: On Kindness: What is it that makes people want to be kind? What do you think about people who go out of their way to be kind to others? Do you think they may have ulterior motives, which they themselves may not be aware of?"

Kindness is one of the fruits of the spirit in Galatians 5:27. If a person is kind they are following promptings from God.
