"Oh mad lover! It was not enough for You to take on our humanity; You had to die as well!" - St. Catherine of Siena
Lately when I pray I often see the nails in Jesus' hands. It is not a gory, bloody scene. What strikes me most in this internal vision is His patience and humility. His willingness, His love.
And I know that the One who allowed his body hands to be pierced with iron is entirely trustworthy to wield the rod of iron that will shatter the nations.
Come, Lord Jesus! We need Your mercy and Your justice!
