"Mercy tree" Lacey Strum cover by Vivian Lam

Jesus' final act of love was the sacrifice of himself. That is, Jesus chose the cross for all of us and while we were still his enemies, he chose the mercy tree to save us. "His sacrifice, our victory, our Saviour chose the mercy tree." "Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
