The One Who Chose' US ' Above Everything Else!!!!

Who is man that you are mindful of us,Who is man that you would give up your family and chances of having a life for us.Inspite of our frailty,inspite of the fact that we received you not.Inspite of the fact that your own disciple that you counted on denied you three times.You still stepped up and you took the cross on your shoulders.They mocked you and called you names,you could have called on a legion of angels; with one word they could  all be destroyed instantly .Yet,you humbled yourself you stayed put ,you endured the lashes and you carried the cross all the way to Golgotha with people still  mocking you all the way up there and you did not change your mind.You were nailed in the hands and in the feet.Your own father looked away from you because you carried the weight of our sin

Eli ,Eli lama sabacthani? that is " My God , My God, why have You Forsaken Me?"-Mark 15:34

but you still chose to endure rather than complain or be upset that we had condemned you .Just before you died a robber called out to you for mercy and immediately you received him.

I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise - Luke 23:34

 You didn't consider the fact that you the king of kings and Lord of Lords ,owner of the universe was being crucified with a robber,You did not consider all the things prior to that .You immediately received him and  as if that was not enough while enduring the pain on the cross .You were still thinking of us and so compelled by your love for us that you uttered

 Father Forgive them for they not what they are doing - Luke 23:34

Then the veil was torn in two, brought down, so that we who are not deserving can receive the love openly displayed for us.That we can come into your presence boldly and can cry out Abba father. Oh father to you be the glory ,to you be the honor , to you be the adoration.


Your love is amazing,it's mind puzzling, It's  indescribable,it's all I want, all I need and more. There is nothing we could ever do that could measure up to your love but today, we thank you for the cross and the limitless benefits it brings.
