My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, so far from the words of my groaning? Lord, do not be far from me. Wake up and rise to my defense,to my cause, my God and my LORD! Vindicate me, LORD, my God, in keeping with Your righteousness, and do not let them rejoice over me. Do not let them say in thei hearts, "Aha! Just what we wanted." Do not let them say, "We have swallowed him up!" Let those who want my vindication shout for joy and be glad; let them continually say, "The LORD be exalted, who wants His servant's well-being." And my tongue will proclaim Your righteousness, Your praise all day long.

I received an email today with this song that goes along with your post.

I agree with Andrea, I wish 'the world' would see and understand...
Thank you for your post.
I’m accepted. You were condemned.
I’m alive and well,
Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again.
Amazing love, how can it be
That you, my King would die for me?
Amazing love, I know it’s true:
It’s my joy to honor you.
In all I do I honor You.
You are my King.
You are my King.
Jesus, You are my King.
Jesus, You are my King
=)
Thanks Mike.
Shocking barbaric way to die.
Who amongst us would be as willing to do this in obedience to God?
I'm far from certain that I would, much as I've lost count how many times I've sung the hymn'When I survey the wondrous cross', particularly the last verse.
Blessings,
