Day 35 of our 47-day journey with Jesus to the cross.
Author & Voice: Erin Benton
Even in the agony of the cross, Jesus responds not with resistance, but with complete trust—offering forgiveness to His enemies and entrusting His life fully into the Father’s hands. His words reveal a deep confidence in God’s character, showing us that trust is not the absence of pain, but surrender in the middle of it. In this episode, we’re invited to follow His example—learning that even when life feels uncertain, we can rest in the faithful hands of a good and sovereign Father.

Set aside some intentional time to spend in prayer today. The battle is won through time spent on our knees in surrender. Spend time worshipping the Father for who He is and how He is faithful and never changing. Cry out on behalf of the lost. Cast all of your burdens and cares at His feet, ask God to increase your trust in His faithfulness.
Father,
In the moments when suffering surrounds me, and questions rise in my heart, remind me of Jesus, who trusted You completely, even in the agony of the cross.
Help me to forgive as He forgave. Help me to surrender as He surrendered. Let my life echo His final words: “Into Your hands, I commit my spirit.”
Because even in the darkness, You are still worthy of my trust. Amen.
