wonder of his love: Agonizing Love

wonder of his love: Agonizing Love by ric Gustafson


There was agony that night in the Garden of Gethsemane. Jesus fell at the base of the olive trees in grief and anguish. Jesus made his choice. He drank from the cup of sorrow and suffering. A holy bargain was struck. His life for ours.
The good news is that anguish turned to triumph. Jesus's agony on the cross became our victory. And because of Jesus, we have been adopted into God's family. Until we go home to be with God and Jesus, we have a Comforter the Holy Spirit. He has been sent to help us.
That is a comfort.
