Read Isaiah 53:4-6

Borne Our Grief vs 4a

Isaiah 53:4a “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows;

He made our griefs His own, and our sorrows as if they were His.

The image is that He loaded them up and carried them on His back, so we wouldn’t have to.

For it to do us any good, we must release them

We have Gone Astray vs 6a
