Good Friday Reflection: Behold the Man

Led to
the slaughter,
taking on our torment,
wearing our guilt,
torn, crushed
for sins
not
 his.

Behold
the
Son
of God.

In the beginning was the Word
and the Word was with God
and the Word was God.
In tangled thorns he
emptied himself,
pouring his
grace on
all of
us.

— written by Anne Osdieck, from the St. Louis University’s Center for Liturgy website.
