Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
1 Peter 2:24 (King James Version)
He used his servant body to carry our sins to the Cross so we could be rid of sin, free to live the right way. His wounds became your healing. You were lost sheep with no idea who you were or where you were going. Now you’re named and kept for good by the Shepherd of your souls.

I like The Message translation. "You were idiots. now, thanks to the grace of God, you are saved (but perhaps still idiots if you do not change your ways):.
God’s Word speaks to each of us in the matter which we can best accept at a personal level. I kinda like your way. 😆
A healing we all need.
I couldn't agree more, NFO. I'm astonished at how many refuse the gift.
Astonished how many refuse to believe, for sure.
I thank the Lord for His mercy every night.
Thank you, Linda.
