Nails were not enough to hold God-and-man nailed and fastened on the Cross, had not love held Him there. ~Catherine of Siena (1347-1380)It wasn't for fame, it wasn't for prize, it wasn't for principle, and it wasn't for honor.
Jesus could have just as easily gotten down off that mean-brutal-blood-soaked tree as he could have had the very ones nailing him to it fried to a crisp, but he didn't. Why?
It was love that held him there.
