“It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” (Hebrews 10:31 ESV) “Behold, the virgin… shall call his name Immanuel (which means, God with us).” (Matthew 1:23 ESV)
The Judge of all the earth stood before an earthly judge and said nothing in His own defense. The One who will one day say, “Depart from me,” first heard Pilate say, “Crucify Him.” He let the gavel fall on Himself so it would never fall on you.
The only hands safe to fall into are the hands that were pierced for me.
Holy God, my Judge who became my substitute, I hide myself in Your wounds. Thank You for taking the sentence I deserved. Amen.
