Life pouring out of a hurting soul.
It trickles as it falls.
A Savior’s blood pours forth to save,
His loving voice calls.
“My loved one I see the pain that drains,
And know all too well.
How it felt to suffer and agonize
When on My knees I fell.
I cried out to My Father to remove My burden,
Yet accepted what He gave.
And in return He strengthened Me
To bare it to My grave.
It took that death to restore that life,
And remove the burden within.
Now I have eternal life,
And will never lose it again.
I gave that life to give you yours
Because I love you so.
The Father longs to strengthen you,
And let your burden go.”

Amen! He was so wonderful and excellent to make that choice for us! And still is! You make me think on the hymn Isn’t He.
“Isn’t He, Wonderful
Wonderful, Isn’t He
Counselor, Almighty God
Isn’t He, isn’t He, isn’t He?”
Me and God love you, Maxine!
