JESUS

#59  MAN OF SORROWS -  "He has no stately form or majesty that we should look upon Him.  He was despised and forsaken of men, a MAN OF SORROWS and acquainted with grief; and like one from whom men hide their face.  He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.  Surely our griefs He Himself bore, and our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, smitten of God and afflicted.  But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our well being fell upon Him, and by His scourging we are healed.  All of us like sheep have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; But the LORD has caused the iniquity of us all to fall on Him.  He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He did not open His mouth; like a lamb that is led to slaughter; and like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, so He did not open His mouth." Isaiah 53:2-7

  :  deep distress, sadness

 Jesus, the MAN OF SORROWS.  You were a MAN who experienced SORROW, deep distress and sadness.   After studying all of Your beautiful names,  Jesus, and seeing Your glory so much clearer - this name absolutely wrecks me.  You were not a celebrity.  You were despised and hated.  You were pierced and crushed.  Chastened and scourged.  Oppressed and afflicted.  Slaughtered.  Yet You came.  You allowed the sin of us all to fall on You.  You were like a silent lamb led to slaughter.   How is this possible?  You endured this for me.   The MAJESTIC ONE - came down from heaven and became despised and hated -  for me.   This is too much - I can't even bear it.  How can I live like You didn't do this for me?  I want to fall on my face before You - worshipping You for what You endured on this earth.  You knew Your whole life that You would die for my sins - and that Your death would make a way for me to know You and live with You for all eternity.  Oh Jesus, thank You for taking my sin upon You - and dying in my place.  Your love for me is so great - I cannot comprehend it.  You are my Savior, the MAN OF SORROWS. I bow in worship to You, my Jesus.

(Can you comprehend His love for you? The MAN OF SORROWS who died for you - worship Him today!!)#100dayswithjesus
