Hebrews 12:2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
I contemplate with wonder how Jesus loves us so much that we would be a motivation to Him during His crucifixion. Do you realize that we were the joy set before Him? The depths of this love are incredible to me.
I've been affected by the lyrics to a song by an unusal woman by the name of Cindy Ruakere. It is called RECEIVE. Oh Lord, that you would give us grace to be the ones through whom Jesus receives the reward of His suffering.
That the Lamb may receive the reward for His suffering,
That the Lamb may receive His reward through me.
Only by grace can this ever be done,
To Lay my life down is a gift from the Son,
And to the Lamb,
Who stands among us as King,
I give up my life,
I give up my life,
I give up my life as an offering
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Romans 1: 20
For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly
seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead...
