Petals from the Basket

Indescribable Grace

I just read John 19. How could I even hope to convey the depth of meaning in this chapter?

I can’t.

I can only, in tear-stained humility say:

God’s love—

Spoken in truth

And in silence.

God’s Son,

Through incredible affliction,

Showed extraordinary love.

God’s grace—

Demonstrated at Calvary;

Mine to receive!

Lord, to attempt anything further would be futile. Your grace and love overwhelm me. I can only sing, “Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?”
