It reminds me of Hebrews 12:2, which says that He endured the cross, even though He despised the shame, for they joy set before Him -- namely, knowing that His suffering and death would accomplish the salvation of all who place their faith in Him. Hallelujah -- what a Saviour!<br />Thanks as always for your thought-provoking comment.

Great point, though, that it may have comforted her after the fact, regardless of whether she remembered it during the crucifixion.<br />Happy New Year & God bless!<br />LaurieLaurie Colletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10676088158113572565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901842915517693862.post-27856933600767625382015-01-08T12:31:17.619-08:002015-01-08T12:31:17.619-08:00Dear Laurie,

But what I found to be so intriguing was that the Lord's concern for both his mother and for one of his followers had over ridden his intense pain as he hung on the cross. If I try to put myself in his place, the pain I would have felt would cause me to be totally unaware of what was going on around me.<br />An excellent post.Frank E.

My son is an adult now as well, and we certainly do continue to share the journeys of our adult children, with all their ups and downs. Sometimes I think mothers feel their children's pain and joy even more deeply than the children do!<br />Many blessings to you,<br />LaurieLaurie Colletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10676088158113572565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901842915517693862.post-83950114563396468812015-01-03T11:31:45.989-08:002015-01-03T11:31:45.989-08:00You know, Laurie, this was just beautiful. As the...You know, Laurie, this was just beautiful. As the mother of two adult sons, I can relate so much to the many feelings that Mary had. I cannot imagine her grief at the Cross, nor her jubilance at the resurrection. And yet, knowing the truth of her who son was, she also knew that he was soon returning to his Father. Yes, when she finally passed from death into life, what a joyous reunion that must have been!<br /><br />Thank you for sharing such meaningful words.<br /><br />GOD BLESS!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.com
