"Behold the Man!" John 19:5

If there is one place where our Lord Jesus most fully becomes the joy and comfort of His people, it is where He plunged deepest into the depths of woe.

Come near, gracious souls, and "behold the Man" in the garden of Gethsemane, behold His heart so brimming with love that He cannot hold it in - so full of sorrow that it must find a vent.

Behold the bloody sweat as it distils from every pore of His body and falls to the ground.

"Behold the Man" as they drive the nails into His hands and feet. Look up, repenting sinners, and see the sorrowful image of your suffering Lord.

Mark Him, as the ruby drops of blood stand on the thorn-crown, and adorn the diadem of the King of Misery with priceless gems.

"Behold the Man" when all His bones are out of joint, and He is poured out like water (Psalm 22:14) and brought into the dust of death. God has forsaken Him, and hell surrounds Him.

Behold and see, was there ever sorrow like unto His sorrow that is done unto Him? All you that pass by draw near and look upon this spectacle of grief, unique, unparalleled, a wonder to men and angels, an unmatched phenomenon.

Behold the Emperor of Woe who had no equal or rival in His agonies! Gaze upon Him, you mourners, for if there is no consolation in a crucified Christ there is no joy in earth or heaven.

If there is no hope in the ransom price of His blood, then there is no joy in you, and the right hand of God shall know no pleasures forevermore (see Psalm 16:11).

We have only to sit more continually at the foot of the Cross to be less troubled with our doubts and woes.

We have but to see His sorrows, and our sorrows we shall be ashamed to mention. We have but to gaze into His wounds and heal our own.

If we would live aright it must be by the contemplation of His death; if we would rise to dignity, it must be by considering His humiliation and His sorrow.


~ Time for Reflection ~

Finding Comfort in Christ's Suffering:
Reflecting on Christ's profound suffering
brings perspective and solace to our own
struggles. By contemplating His sacrifice
and sorrows, we find healing and hope,
learning to live with greater faith and
dignity through His ultimate act of love.
