HIS PRECIOUS FACE
“Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands, Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?”
Matthew 26:67,68 (King James Version)
Jesus was abused and treated worse than anyone has ever been treated. Not only did they curse Him and nail Him to the cross, they also spit in His precious face. Has it entered your heart yet how much Jesus loves you? He loves you so much He died for your sins. What a Saviour, this Jesus of Nazareth!
If you ever feel like nobody loves you, remember the cross and all the suffering that Jesus endured for you. You are very precious to Him and He loves you unconditionally. What a comfort and encouragement it is to our weary and battle scarred heart to know that Jesus loves us.
We know how much Jesus loves us because He proved His love for us when He allowed them to crucify Him on the cross but how much do we love Him? What are we doing to prove to Him that we love Him? Jesus got out of His comfort zone for us. He left His Father and His home and came to earth to die for us.
Are we serving Him with all of our heart? Have we got out of our comfort zone for Him or are we still watching television hour after hour? How we must hurt Jesus and break His heart because we don’t always serve Him like we should serve Him. Are you willing to get out of your comfort zone and serve Him?
Heavenly Father, help us to get out of our comfort zone and serve Jesus with all of our heart and all of our time. Jesus, thank You for loving us so much that You died for us. I love You, Jesus. Worthy is the Lamb of God! Amen.
