Poem
The Suffering That HE Bore We will never fully understand the depth of the suffering that Jesus bore on Calvary nor the pain of separation from His Father during the prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane. This Savior, the Son of God what a tremendous love for man He has shown yet we can only scratch the mere surface of that love no matter how much in Him we have grown. How can mortal man understand fully the way that our God truly does think His infinite wisdom and understanding exemplifies as He grapples in the universe’s problems while we only have time to blink. When the Lord Jesus left Heaven for us and came down to the level of man it was similar to an earthly King leaving his palace to take up residence in a large garbage can. Now what about His honor and authority as HE had angels snap to attention at His command while in contrast His earthly creation laughing and jeering at Him and at times striking Him with the back of their hands. He came and did His best for His created mankind and for mere mortal man to see our Creator God Who had come down to our level conversing and teaching about a hard heart of which He would plead. Oh I know at times my own ignorance of His ways has made Him at times with me wroth it was a lack of knowledge on my part yet He patiently endured until I could see how much for Him it did cost. My dear people this blessed Savior was asked by His Father to suffer this way for you and for me so we could receive Him and His precious Redemption plan and thereby live with Him all through eternity.
