You see, some Christians get carried away by the sufferings of our Lord Jesus at the time of His death; they spend time feeling sorry for Him(Jesus), that they end up forgetting the reason behind His pains.
Jesus died for us..for you and me. He allowed Himself to be flogged, spat on, crucified, bruised because of you and me. As much as we reflect on His pains and sufferings, don't stay in the realm forever. Be a partaker of the glory that followed.
When Jesus walked on the streets of Jerusalem to be crucified after the soldiers whipped Him, people spat on Him etc, the Bible said in Luke 23:27-28 KJV , "And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him. But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children."
Jesus suffered for our sake but HE IS ALIVE and seated at the right hand of God. It will do you good to focus on the finished work of Jesus. Remember it's by His stripes that you were healed, this means you should not be sick! That's why Jesus was flogged. Don't let His pains be in vain in your life. While you are at it, make sure you receive Jesus as your Lord so you don't go to hell because Jesus already went there for you.
