Littleness and the Cross

"Jesus, in His great purity of Heart, suffered more from this darkness, sin and fear than we could ever conceive. Jesus, although He was a man, had a heart of a little child – for His Heart was so pure He was greatly sensitive to all emotions, situations and people. His Heart was able to acutely take everything in deep to its core, and this includes the evil He consumed for us on the Cross. His Heart was so pure; it was defenseless. He was open completely on the Cross in vulnerable Love so as to drink fully the Father’s will and so to receive all of humanity deep into Himself. Yet this openness caused the terror of His Cross to be even greater, for He had no defenses against His fear. He had no visible security except for the nails securing Him to the Cross."
