Crown of Love
He wore a crown of love upon His head.
All of His precious blood, He did shed.
He was like a sheep lead to the slaughter.
He is the one between us and our Father.
One who split the curtain, bottom to top
Lord Jesus your love for us will never stop.
How intimate and personal could it be
than that, He did it all for me?
To heaven and hell, He holds the key.
He died for me, to set my soul free.
At the cross face to face with Him I meet,
to gently wash His nailed pierced feet.
Do we know what God gave for you and me,
when He let Jesus die upon that tree?
It was unconditional and agape love.
No, greater love was ever conceived of.

The poem is beautiful, but the Bible stats the curtain was torn from top to bottom to show that is was the All Mighty God, who did it and showing us this was truly his son. If man would have done it would have been from bottom to top.

It moves me to tears when I think of the pain and anguish that The Almighty Lord Jesus went through because
of MY sins. How can we not spend every second of our lives living for and praising Him. God’s own heart must have been tearing right out of His chest with the pain He endured watching His own Son go through the death on the Cross and have to turn His back on Him for the sake of the entire human race.And yet today so many have all but thrown Him in the trash barrels.Shame on America,shame,shame!

yes it was He who took our infirmities and carried our sorrows yet we all considered Him one stricken by God. has it not been His unconditional love who can mount up the cross not even angels nor the devil. Jesus we your younger brothers here are forever grateful . for has it not been our senior brother Jesus where would we have found ourselves?

Joe & Rehana: To whom do you go for comfort, forgiveness and peace of mind when
things go wrong ??? Do you know anyone who will forgive you for your sins no matter how bad they are ??? Do you know anyone that you can shed unashamed tears to and not make fun of you??? Whom do you thank when things come out wonderfully ???
Who do you think arranges an unexpected phone call that you have been waiting for?
When you are alone and weary, who can you talk to ???
I know who for me… JESUS … Go ahead… try it… please…
Blessings to you both… Elizabeth W.

What mannner of Love that God has bestowed upon us that he gave his only son to die on the cross just to pay for all the sins we have committed, to make every wrong right and to redeem our souls from destruction. Little wonder He said He has loved us with an everlasting love and has drawn us with his loving kindness. WHAT A GREAT LOVE.

To truly understand, is to forgive; and only the brave and loving have the will to forgive.
Jesus Christ was certainly the bravest man to have walked upon this earth, knowing what he would undergo at the hands of those who hated him . . . and he was, without question, the most loving as well.
We must always remember his sacrifice.

I love you Jesus and Thank you for loving me.
I cried often of all the pain and suffering here in this world. I think of Jesus and all of His suffering and pain for me a sinner, and then I cried also when I think how we all nailed Him to that cross and crucified Him. He said Father forgive them for they know not what they are doing, as He was suffering so much for all of us and our sins.
No greater day when Jesus was born and when he died for all of us and to take the harsh cruel punishment for all of us sinners. Thank You Jesus seems so small and if I could Jesus I would cook you the biggest feast and let my tears wash your feet and my hair to dry them, and I am looking forward to the day of your return my Sweet Precious Jesus Halelujah.
What a glorious day that will be and I know I will be so happy in the big celebration of your return.
We are to love others the way Jesus loves us and to witness to all of those loss souls, and have a heart like Jesus who always saw the good in everyone.
Jesus I am growing more each day in my maturity study and walk, talk , prayer with you and becoming more the person you created me to be, and Thank you with all of my love and all of me I give to you.
I will sing praises to you my Lord for loving me so much that you sent your only begotten son Jesus to die for my sins. Your love is so Awesome and no comparison to the love we know until we have grown with you and you live in our heart, soul and spirit. You are so Beautiful and the most prettest name I know is Jesus Christ. I will do all I can to let my light shine for others as I share my testimony of all you have done for me in my lifetime, and each day I pray you use me in some way to show your love that lives in me and it all came from you my sweet and most precious Father.
Your loving daughter Maggie 🙂
Amen

The Message of Easter is the most important time of the year, it is when we as Christians enjoy the celebrations of our Lord and Savior coming out of the grave and giving us life everlasting. He said that no greater love have a man, than that he lay down his life for his brother, and Jesus did that very thing. Things like this is great.
God gave us His only begotten out of His unconditional love. How do we manifest this same love to others since it's been shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost. Love is the key to a Godly life. God bless u for this msg Janice Kennedy.

He was actully wounded for my transgression the chestisement of my peace was upon Him and By HIS stripes i am heald.I love Jesus the author of life,the existence Himself,the Alpha and Omega and the commander of the entire universe He went all the way to calvary not only to redeem my poor soul,but to give me reason to exit.May all honour, adoration,majesty be ascribed to God for all HE has done through our LORD and SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST.
