Jesus knows my pain!

[Jasmine 0]

Okay, one night I was watching shows on TBN and the Easter Experience comes on. It talked about how Jesus understood my pain during the last hours of his life. Then I broke into tears. He understood my depression (sadness etc), "He was looked down on and passed over, a man who suffered, who knew pain firsthand." Isaiah 53:3 The Message, he know what it feels like for people to say he's ugly (which he is not), "There was nothing attractive about him, nothing to cause us to take a second look." Isaiah 53:2, to be rejected, every single day people reject him as their savior, to be taugnted(sp?) and teased, "One look at him and people turned away. We looked down on him, thought he was scum." Isaiah 53:4. Divorce= apostasy, cheating=sinning, physical pain= the cross, disease= he bore our diseases, curses= he bore our curses, lonliness= he was alone on the last hours of his life, and the list goes on. You don't believe me? Then, ask God! Jesus could've came to earth and live like a king. He could've had an easy life. BUT, he wanted to help us in every way possible. He, the Creater, wanted to know what it feels like to be a human! Jesus gave up his God form for a human form. For eternity he's a human. For eternity, he is scarred on his body for me and for YOU. He wanted to be the shoulder we cry on, the chest on which we lay our heads upon. Just makes you want to cry, right? LOL! This is the intense love he has for us. He loves you so much that he's in love with you. He can't stop loving you. He can't stop thinking of you. To think that you've got God's attention ALL the time. You are never alone. Jesus is always with you...even to the end of the age...

1 Who believes what we've heard and seen? Who would have thought God's saving power would look like this?
2-6The servant grew up before God—a scrawny seedling,
a scrubby plant in a parched field.
There was nothing attractive about him,
nothing to cause us to take a second look.
He was looked down on and passed over,
a man who suffered, who knew pain firsthand.
One look at him and people turned away.
We looked down on him, thought he was scum.
But the fact is, it was our pains he carried—
our disfigurements, all the things wrong with us.
We thought he brought it on himself,
that God was punishing him for his own failures.
But it was our sins that did that to him,
that ripped and tore and crushed him—our sins!
He took the punishment, and that made us whole.
Through his bruises we get healed.
We're all like sheep who've wandered off and gotten lost.
We've all done our own thing, gone our own way.
And God has piled all our sins, everything we've done wrong,
on him, on him.

7-9He was beaten, he was tortured,
but he didn't say a word.
Like a lamb taken to be slaughtered
and like a sheep being sheared,
he took it all in silence.
Justice miscarried, and he was led off—
and did anyone really know what was happening?
He died without a thought for his own welfare,
beaten bloody for the sins of my people.
They buried him with the wicked,
threw him in a grave with a rich man,
Even though he'd never hurt a soul
or said one word that wasn't true.

10Still, it's what God had in mind all along,
to crush him with pain.
The plan was that he give himself as an offering for sin
so that he'd see life come from it—life, life, and more life.
And God's plan will deeply prosper through him.

11-12Out of that terrible travail of soul,
he'll see that it's worth it and be glad he did it.
Through what he experienced, my righteous one, my servant,
will make many "righteous ones,"
as he himself carries the burden of their sins.
Therefore I'll reward him extravagantly—
the best of everything, the highest honors—
Because he looked death in the face and didn't flinch,
because he embraced the company of the lowest.
He took on his own shoulders the sin of the many,
he took up the cause of all the black sheep.

[Jasmine 0]

yes isn't he so awesome. He's very gentle but he's like a lion. If you mess with his family (us) he'll mess with u

[Delightful soul 0]

Amen, you have a gift there and you will certainly use it through your life..........it was very encouraging and I think yet again the emphasis for you is on the LION! He wants to move strong in your life.

The devil roams about 'LIKE" a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour..........but JESUS IS the LION!

The enemy is a counterfeit for the authority and Lordship of Christ. Amen..
