THE CHASTISEMENT OF OUR PEACE …


        (Isaiah 53: 5)

Blessed is our peace: peace

With God; peace in the heart;

The peace of God, the God

Of peace.


Peace has been made; God

Has made peace; made peace

"By the blood of his cross":

Christ's cross.


"He is our peace": tempering

The disparate into one man

In Himself; reconciling us

By the cross.


What chastisement! Our peace

Exists and subsists through chastisement:

The chastisement of our peace was

Upon Him.
