Reckless Abandon

I bet it went something like this~

*                                                                                                                                                              
"I'll go," The Son said plainly.

The Father shook His head. 

"I know." 

"It's the only way," The Son pleaded. 

God looked down into the world, a tear sliding down His magnificent face; His heart broken.

"Alright," The Father whispered painfully.

*                                                                                                                                                               

Did Heaven grow quiet in that instance? Did God's resolve waver for even a fraction of a second?" Did Jesus even consider what He would be leaving behind?

How could a love like that be? 

A love so strong, so unconditional, that our Creator would give up His heavenly being and place with The Father, to become the sole bearer of our sins? 

Incomprehensible. 

Unimaginable. 

Truly wonderful. 

How can I live without Him, abandoning Him recklessly, when He died for me with reckless abandon? 

It's a rhetorical question; I can't. 

John 3:16 

For God so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life.
