Only the Lord God Knows

Only the Lord God Knows
The sum total of the human plight
Our sins, pains, and sorrows
He came to know on that dreadful night
Then,  as the scapegoat, He
Carried our cross on His torn flesh
Ever so willingly
With compassion to save and bless

Pondering The Infinite Atonement by Tad Callister
 Luke 23:34 ¶Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. I keep thinking of the Issis terrorists crucifying a Father and killing four nuns in mockery of Easter. What love the Savior offered for those who inflicted so much torment and pain long ago. He wasn't kidnapped, but was conspired against and falsely accused, though He'd never committed a single sin. He was wronged in every way. And suffered it.
