"Our Lord Jesus..for love would be a mortal man."
Julian of Norwich (Ch. 3)
He didn't have to take on flesh and blood and become a mortal man, but He chose to. He became on of us to enter into our situation, feel what we feel, go through what we go through, and deliver us from all that hurt us, helping us from the inside out. He could have chosen another way, but He chose to bear our pain and suffer with us in order to bring us healing and relief. It was all for love. That's why He did it. It was all for love!
"The Word became flesh and dwelt among us."
John 1:14 (ESV)
