How does one
volunteer for suffering?
Is there a place
somewhere with a sign:
“Volunteers for
suffering wanted?”
Certainly there
cannot be such a place
Or such a desire
in the human heart:
“I will
volunteer to suffer.”
There is One who
volunteered to suffer
Who considered it
a joy to wear the badge:
“I choose to
suffer for you.”
The chosen
suffering was received
In brokenness
and pain declaring:
“My wounds are
your healing.”
