The prayer
Written prayerLord Jesus, I humble myself before you, it breaks my heart to know the pain you suffered because of my sins and arrogant pride. I weep when I think of what they did to you, such a gentle and innocent man. Many pass over your humanity and your suffering because you were God. Yes, you were God but you divested yourself of your majesty to wrap yourself in the flesh of man. You identified with everything humanity suffers, feels, and contends with. You felt every insulting word they mocked you with. When they ripped open your flesh with the nine tails whip and pierced your head with a crown of thorns you felt ever agonizing emotions. When they nailed you to the cross in humiliation before those you loved and cared for it must have broken your heart more than your body. You could have called down your angelic host to deliver you from this torture but you yielded until it was finished. After you asked God to forgive them and cleared your spirit you commited your spirit into your father's hands and breathed your last breath. You offered yourself in death that I might live. I seek to glorify you Lord by living in alignment with your word of truth. You said if I love you I will keep your commandments. I do love you and will keep your commandments. In Jesus name, amen.
