Matthew 27:29-30 and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on his head and put a reed in his right hand. And kneeling before him, they mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”And they spit on him and took the reed and struck him on the head.
Matthew 27: 41-2 So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked him, saying, 42 “He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.
Mark 15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
What a testimony of turning pain to purpose. Also a great reminder for us all with Good Friday on the horizon, His sacrifice is our salvation. Thank you Jesus 🙌

Love this. Thank you for reminding us of the trials our Lord went through and for sharing a bit about your own personal struggles. I also have a physical illness (a neurological disease) that prevents me from driving so just hearing your story gave me a sense of feeling less like the only one. May God bless you on your journey from pain to purpose!
Bless u, thank u so much! Xx
Jesus’ suffering had a purpose and it was this purpose that sustained Him. That’s why its important for all of us to have a grasp on what our purpose might be. ❤
Amen! X
