Good Morning!
Dr. Alexander Whyte tells the story of a man who dreamed that he saw Jesus tied to a whipping post and a soldier was scourging Him. He saw the whip in the soldier's hand, with its thick lashes, studded here and there with bits of lead, which were intended to cut into the flesh.
As the soldier brought the whip down on the bare shoulders of Jesus, the dreamer shuddered as he saw the marks and bloodstains it left behind. When the soldier raised his hand to strike again, the dreamer rushed forward, intending to stop him. As he did so, the soldier turned around and the dreamer recognized himself.
We often think how cruel those men must have been who scourged and crucified Jesus. But whenever we do wrong, we, too, cause the heart of Jesus to bleed with sorrow and pain. Remember, whoever you are, Jesus loves you!
