Reseña del libro "Gethsemane (en Inglés)"
Only those healed of a broken heart can really minister to broken hearts. They KNOW there is a balm for Gethsemane. Those who are being crushed and those who have been crushed by the world's presses need the ministry of One who Himself was crushed, and yet overcame, and opened for others the way of restoration and victory. The prophet Jeremiah, overwhelmed by the crushing of his people, cried in anguish: "Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there?" (Jeremiah 8:22). A world in anguish for its young, its sons and daughters, cries out in despair, "Is there no balm for our wounds? Is Gethsemane's crushing the end?" O broken hearts! Listen to the voice of our Elder Brother. From the press that crushed His heart flows wondrous oil of healing. O bruised, crushed sons and daughters of men, hear the message of Gethsemane, telling you that although there was no crushing like His crushing, nor sorrow like unto His sorrow, no bloody sweat of agony like unto His; yet He who alone faced the unutterable anguish and horror of the hour of darkness in the garden, is alive forevermore, exalted in triumph. Gethsemane itself has been conquered. The devourer has been devoured. Listen not to those who know not how deep is thy hurt. They will heal thy wounds but slightly. Hearken not to those who know not the meaning of agony. O America, who art being crushed by the horrors of war, seek not physicians that have never suffered. Leave thy man-made gods, who are not capable of sharing sorrow and suffering, to senseless, selfish isolationists, and let them wrap them in the robes of their own cold aloofness, to seek their consolations. Thy true GOD has passed through deep suffering. O World, thou art passing through Gethsemane! Thou needest the CHRIST of Gethsemane. The millstones of war and destruction, of shameful rape and ruin, of ruthless, cruel sin, and appalling wickedness, are crushing out the life of thy youth as well as thine aged, thy children as well as thy parents. Only He who Himself knows the depths of affliction and horror can minister to thee in this hour of thy deep travail. Thou needst Him who knew and conquered the crushing of Gethsemane and the death of the Cross. Only He knows the depths of thine anguish. He alone can give thee deliverance and restoration. Seek Him, JESUS of the Scars.
