“Jesus bled too. He knows what it’s like to have blood leave the body in great rivers, in unstoppable streams. He knows the reality of being ostracized. He knows what it is to have no way out of his circumstances. He knows what it is to be broken, in his heart and in his limbs. His body pulverized. His spirit abandoned. He knows what it is to wait for God to come through – and to die in the waiting.”
