Guiding Scripture: Luke 22:63-65, The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him.64 They blindfolded him and demanded, “Prophesy! Who hit you?”65 And they said many other insulting things to him.

Let's linger on these verses. Jesus is a man of limitless power. He certainly knew who hit Him. But He said nothing. He wasn’t going to shy away from the plan God had for him. The pain of being separated from God the Father was more unbearable than the physical pain He endured. In order to save humanity and glorify God, Jesus became the sacrificial Lamb.

Many of us would waver at the mass amount of trauma Jesus was going through. And yet, He still went forward.
