The nail is used for many things
You see, a harmer is taken by it and drives it, that's a rule
Its an important tool but here is the irony
It was also used 2000 years ago
To hang upon a cross the King
Who endured great agony.....JESUS CHRIST
A name familiar to every ear
Yet a character unknown to most dependants of oxygyn air
That's simply the familiar unfamiliarity
You see, Jesus took the pain and suffering for all mankind
He freely offered himself as the undeserving substitute
Tortured in our place,he bore our cross and wore our crown
He is one of a kind
Yet his royalty was never recognised
His life was never for one second correctly analyzed
Yet it was God's act of love for all mankind
Its the kind of grace beyond description
The type that moved me to recognition
Of the existence of God; the creator of all creation
A God that sent his "not one of many sons" but "only son" to trade life for death
And Grace pierced me in exchange
What a beautiful exchange; giving me a free gift called salvation
But you see this gift is often taken for granted by so many people...sad to say
Yet it came at a great cost that is explained through the cross and 3 nails
Elements of the crucifixion story
See, you cannot keep a good man down
Through the years many have said
He went down a man and rose a king to deliver the spiritually dead; Giving us salvation
So when you see a simple nail with a sharpened end
Remember the crucifixtion story
And give God due glory
