Thief on a cross

Here we are.

Tried and convicted to death.
Fully knowing the depth of or shortfalls,  our failures,  or brokenness... our humanity.

Crucified.   Together.
Taking the physical punishment demanded of our flesh.

But we are not alone.
A King hangs between us, sharing in the physical agony we endure.

He knows our pain, as we all share in this suffering, together.

He mediates for our sake; to God, to one another.

Who would've thought that community would, or could, be modeled like this.
