There He is sitting on the cross. What’s going on? What is He thinking? How is He feeling at this very moment? This pic reminds me of the crucifixion scene in Mel Gibson’s movie “The Passion of the Christ”. Check it out the next time you’re watching…the cross is lying on the ground & Jesus crawls on His hands & knees over to it and gets on it HIMSELF!! He lies on His back right on top of the cross, no one put Him there. He did that because He loves us.
