Pierced!
by Deborah Ann Belka Pierced by our sins, afflicted with their pain the Son of God dies for our eternal gain. Crushed and rejected, bearer of our sickness His stripes are a display of grace and forgiveness. Stricken and cut down, all our iniquities taken the Healer of humanity hangs dying and forsaken. Bruised but not broken, Jesus lives on today . . . but the world from Him still turns the other way. Pierced and afflicted, for eternities gain Jesus nailed to the cross Oh, think of the pain! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Isaiah 53:4-6 King James Version "Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows:yet we did esteem him stricken,smitten of God, and afflicted.But he was wounded for our transgressions,he was bruised for our iniquities:the chastisement of our peace was upon him;and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray;we have turned every one to his own way;and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all."
