Oh the Depth of Jesus’s Love to Sinners!

Reflect on these words about the passion of the Lord Jesus:

Little did they dream, as they bound the fatal wood upon His shoulder, by whose power that tree was made to grow, and from whom the beings who bore Him to the death drew their existence. So completely was Jesus bent upon saving sinners by the sacrifice of Himself, He created the tree upon which He was to die, and nurtured from infancy the men who were to nail Him to the accursed wood.

Oh the depth of Jesus's love to sinners!

Octavius Winslow (1808-1878)

Hear God call you to worship through his word:

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree; so that, having died to sins, we might live for righteousness. By his wounds, you have been healed. For you were like sheep going astray, but you have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

1 Peter 2:24-25, Christian Standard Bible
