In fact He is Son of God, sinless and He suffered for the sins of all people. Just for sinful. He went through the awful sufferings and every beat he got instead of you and me. Sometimes as His daughter I am ashamed for myself and for my life. And thinking about this, each one of us praises God sincerely and ask Him for forgiveness of our sins.

And the most stunning is the way Christ behaves, and the greatness of His love when He looks at people, who crucified Him.
