Jesus is the only person, on the entire planet, who knows how it feels to be YOU.
He carried everything AS you on Calvary.
He died AS you on Calvary.
He endured the wrath of God AS you.
He had to carry all of the things that you would carry, so he could redeem you.
He had to feel it all.
Bear it all.
Suffer it all.
The remedy had to resemble the problem.
He couldn’t redeem me without knowing me perfectly.
That’s why he saved others, but not himself.
So that he could know me, and I know him.
Had he saved himself that day, on Calvary, he would’ve never known me fully. And I would’ve never been brought nigh.
He knows every detail of me.
Every thing I’ve ever felt, he carried.
Psalms 139:16-18
“ Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.”
