18.jpg ISAIAH 53:3-7
He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted.But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.

We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.

kukka4.jpgI remember how sometime before I got religion I had to (in my own opinion) to listen to the cliché “Jesus loves you!” aaall the time. But guess what: nothing in this world is more true than that!

He made EVERYTHING and much, much more what it says there in the book of Isaiah. He was all free to call a legion of angels to help if He had wanted to. He could’ve just snapped His fingers and make it all stop. But He wanted to give His life for you. Jesus payed for you with His own life. He 31.jpgpayed for the enemy who had mislead the humankind. HE PAYED FOR YOU. He gave back your right to the citizenship of God’s Kingdom and the right to be God’s child. You don’t owe anything because your debt has been signed. The only thing that can ever cancel this check written for an unlimited amount is that you wouldn’t want to receive it.

Symbolism:

51.jpgEveryone knows the funny game where you pluck the petals of a daisy and count “he loves me, he loves me not…” The daisy in this work represents the love that Jesus felt for you when He accepted and received the lashes, mockery, spitting, hatred, ridicule, all the expressions of cruelty that was possible to make to a crusified criminol at that world time. That is why each of the petals says “LOVES”, it was all that Jesus thought of you when He died. The stem of the daisy is a nail that of course represents the nails with which Jesus was crusified.
