Isaiah 53:3-5 We despised him and rejected him; he endured suffering and pain. No one would even look at him we ignored him as if he were nothing. “But he endured the suffering that should have been ours, the pain that we should have borne. All the while we thought that his suffering was punishment sent by God. But because of our sins, he was wounded, beaten because of the evil we did. We are healed by the punishment he suffered, made whole by the blows he received.
This could not have been easy for Him, considering the way we treated Him; like He deserved the way we killed Him when the whole time He lived He knew He was going to die for us. But, He had removed I from the equation before He got here, He came to do God's will not His own; because when that time came Jesus had to pray for strength and courage not once but twice, (Matt. 26;39-43) and the Father, give Him the strength and courage He needed to carry out His plan. It's not easy following Christ, but it is worth it.
