Christ's Sorrow bearing down upon You God breaks what he makes, and makes what he breaks. So let's ask God's spirit to break our heart the way our sin breaks his. III. Christ's Comfort welling up in You I am consoled by God's forgiveness, lifted up by God's grace, empowered by God's Spirit, emboldened by God's hope, and comforted by God's presence.
