Christ foreknew the events leading up to His crucifixion including His betrayal by Judas. How difficult it must have been to carry on with this knowledge. Yet He was faithful to His Heavenly Father by continuing to perform His earthly mission sustained by His love for the people of earth who needed a savior.

It’s noble and wise to continue conducting your mission in spite of resistance you encounter. In fact, it reveals your endurance, an admirable quality.

“For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” [Heb. 12:2]

DAILY PRAYER: Jesus, thank You for the example you left us by suffering, enduring, yet triumphing over all resistance by being obedient to Your mission.
