there is a yearning in my soul
to understand these open gaping wounds
on the back of this man Jesus
this mangled looking man
who can now barely stand
a sobering symbol of religion's power to destroy
Pilate again inquires as to the wishes
the heart
of the crowd
CRUCIFY HIM
fills the air
weakened by the loss of so much precious blood
Jesus staggers under the onslaught of those words
Pilate questions
Jesus' words in answer are few
each one a truth
no one can take his life
he will lay it down
every moment pre ordained by the father
every moment chosen by the son
to bring honor
glory
praise
to the father
Jesus considers the cross an honor
how can I ever understand this love
for me
