The road was steep
Jagged rocks tore at His feet
Battering the soles of His sandals
Yet on He came
Divine appointments had
To be kept
He knew His destiny had called
From the eternal beginnings of time
An old wooden cross was
Waiting in the darkness
Yet on He came
Thousands of people had to be fed
They had gathered for days
Seeking the One who would heal
Diseases, infirmities, blind eyes,
Leprosy and tormented spirits
Many would be ungrateful
And cry crucify!
Yet on He came
He knew what lay ahead
Within the Father’s will
Betrayal and denial
By those He loved
Beating and abandonment
Three rusty nails
To pierce His hands and feet
Forsaken by the Father
A grave with a door of stone
Yet on He came
He knew He would be
Three days in the pits of hell
To bring back the keys of Heaven
To give them a choice
That had gone on before
He would defeat the enemy
Of mortal souls
But, rejection would be their choice
Yet on He came
He knew that in the future
I would need a Savior
To save me from the wrath of God
To wash me of my sins
And redeem my soul from
The eternal darkness of hell
I didn’t deserve His grace and mercy
Yet on He came.
Thank You Jesus for saving me
I am so grateful you came!

So beautiful the words, I have but only one with which to share…amen!
Thank you my friend. Time is running out I pray people will listen before He comes back this time and they get right with God. Much blessings to you and your family Wendell
This is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. It made my heart hurt too–thinking about everything Jesus did to save us.
Thank you and makes mine hurt to to think of how many times I have taken His grace and mercy for granted instead of being grateful and humble for His sacrifice (for me and others).
