"Because of the disposition arising from anarchy against God, men do not see or believe that the Cross of Christ is the expression of God's own love; but when a man is convicted of sin, he begins to discern the marvellously patient love of God, and as he looks at the Cross his heart slowly realizes -- 'Surely now I see -- He has borne my griefs, and carried my sorrows; yet I did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted; but He was wounded for my transgression.'" Oswald Chambers, Christian Disciplines Vol. 2, Book 3, "The Discipline of Patience" |
