He endured yet embraced...

He was despised...rejected...betrayed...and mocked.  He was perfect.  He healed.  He listened. He wept.  He taught.  He loved.  Yet He was beaten and crucified...a perfect man...the Son of God.

When my heart is heavy because of being rejected, mocked, abandoned and betrayed, I am reminded of what He endured.  Very much unlike me, He was blameless.

However, knowing that when my tears silently fall...or simply don't fall at all, He understands.  He knows pain.  He knows heartache.  He knows loss.  He knows the cruelty of this world.

Yet He chose to love...even when it meant dying a horrible, excruciating death.  Knowing He loves me that much helps me face the blows of this journey.  For He understands and will never forsake me.  He even forgives me.  I am amazed, grateful...and never alone.<3~thl
