As a matter of fact I almost always feel BAD
Unworthy
Shameful
Wretched
And puzzled as to why
God in all of His glory would have left his throne in heaven...
Confused as to why He
"made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness." (Phil 2:7)
Knowing He would be
"despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering." (Isiah 53: 3)
Knowing He would be
"oppressed and afflicted...led like a lamb to the slaughter." (Isiah 53: 7)
Baffled that He would be
"pierced for our transgressions...crushed for our iniquities" (Isiah 53: 5)
Yet in this same passage I am reminded
"By His wounds we are healed" (Isiah 53: 5)
In Him all of my BAD is made GOOD
All of my iniquities
Every bit of
Shame
Unworthiness
Wretchedness
has been healed for
"By His wounds we are healed"
