At adoration this week Rocky and I sat near the Infant of Prague statue. I looked and thought of how much God loves us. He gave His only Son up to :
Nails to destroy the use of His hands and feet
A crown made of thorns to pierce His head
Eyes swollen shut, vision bleared by sweat, dirt and blood,
The Holy Face so battered and bruised that He must have been almost unrecognizable
Dehydration, desperate thirst, cold chills, vomitus, ribs screaming in pain with every breath
Flesh shredded by the flagrum and a Body awash in a sea of His own blood
All this for love
I can't think of anything more awesome
