21 Days To Beat Depressionনমুনা

Jesus went through trials while He was living on earth as a man. The cross was more than a trial and greater than an inconvenience. The cross was pain and suffering! It was the greatest agony known to all of mankind.

Jesus endured the cross, even though He despised the pain, because of the joy that was set in front of Him. What was the extraordinary joy that He kept His focus upon when the pain was nearly too much too bear?

The joy that gave Jesus the strength to carry on was you... and me. We are His joy and He is our joy!

Jesus knew that He had to die so that we could live; that was pure joy to Him! Jesus knew that His Body had to bear the pain of a horrific death so that we could be healed... and He counted that as pure joy!

Did Jesus like what He had to go through? No... the Bible tells us that He despised it... but He did it because He named you “Joy”.
