Grim prospects

The prospect of being made sin was horrffic - for a holy being.

The weight and blackness of the sin of the whole world - crushing,

Your humanity weak and trembling, and breaking in the light of the weight of the task at hand. Fears threatening to sway Your path.

God's grace was sufficient help for You in Your trembling prayers.

Then You stepped up, conquered Your fears, trusted God to raise You up and gave Yourself to the death and conquered the cross for me.

Surely You will help me in my fears to do gloriously as You did.


Hebrews 5:7-8 (New King James Version)

7 who, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His godly fear,

8 though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.
