Crucifixion

Our sins, sweet Jesus,

Forged nails to crucify you
 
Became


Yet 


Your divine blood, 

Away washed, all humanity’s

Shame!

Truly I thank you my dear friend, Tim! Our Lord deserves much better tribute than this humble expression of mine!

I am unable to fully comprehend a Love this deep but I am so thankful for His sacrifice. Without Jesus I would most certainly be lost.

It is difficult for a mere mortal to understand divine love, my good friend, Richard. You are not the only one so do not feel bad! I agree with you that we should be grateful for His love! Thank you!

The first two lines, so profound and yet so sad. You have the gift of insight, Demetrios and you say much while at the same time, needing the use of very few words to convey your meaning.
