The Paradox of the Cross

At the cross...
The best of God met the worst of man.
Pure love triumphed over vile hatred.
Unimaginable joy healed broken dreams and sorrow.
Perfect peace soothed the violence in the hearts of men.
Long-suffering patience endured the self-seeking of instant gratification.
Kindness confronted cruelty.
Goodness met fury.
The faithfulness of God outlasted the treason of unfaithful men.
Self-control prevailed in the face of unrestraint.
Gentleness proved stronger than strength.
Unmerited forgiveness washed away sin.
And the poor in spirit found the riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
