HIS PRECIOUS HANDS

“The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord.  But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.”
John 20:25 KJV

Rev. Ray Overholt wrote the beautiful heart touching hymn “Ten Thousand Angels”.  Yes, our Saviour could have called ten thousand angels to set Him free but He chose to stay on the cross because He loves us and He also wanted to fulfill the mission His Father had given Him.

Every time I think about them abusing Jesus and beating Him beyond recognition for my sins, tears come to my eyes.  O how Jesus loves you and me.  Your spouse and family love you but nobody loves you like Jesus and nobody ever will.  His love for you is unconditional and He will love you for all eternity.

The precious hands of Jesus were not only nailed to the cross, His beautiful precious hands also pick us up when we are broken hearted and hurting as He carries us through all the dark lonely valleys in our life.  What a Saviour!  What a Friend, this Jesus of Nazareth!  O how I love Jesus.
