A Rose's Thorns

Reminiscent

By Colleen WaltersPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

The thorns of a rose

are a reminder of His

sacrifice for us.

Angels were ready

to rescue Him: He chose to

rescue us instead.

“And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head, and they put on Him a purple robe.”

‭‭John‬ ‭19‬:‭2‬ ‭NKJV

Author's Note: I know how painful it is to get snagged and torn by the thorns on my roses, so I can't even imagine the pain He endured being made to wear a crown of thorns. ❤️
