who am i to think

that Jesus would not know physical pain... after all He was whipped 39 times - 39 times with the flesh being ripped from bone

that He does not understand scars... the holes in His hands and feet remain

that He does not understand temptation... the devil tried it on Him for so long

that He does not understand desperation... He had to choose to die

that He does not know the darkest bits of me... he bore the world's sin, every last bit of shortcoming, every bit of condemnation, every evil thought

that I am not loved... He died for me

that I am not worthy... my God died for me



who am I to ignore the greatest gift anyone could give?

but still the flesh is weak...
