Daily Reading-Hebrews 5:7-9
Jesus learned obedience through suffering. Mary, the woman of sorrow at the foot of the cross, retains her faith even with the death of her Son. Even our own suffering can draw us closer to God if we join it with Jesus’ and continue to entrust our lives into His hands. We may not understand now, but in the future all will be revealed. Trust in Jesus.
Hebrews 5:7-9 (or 1 Corinthians 12:31-13:13)
7 In the days when he was in the flesh, he offered prayers and supplications with loud cries and tears to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence. 8 Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered; 9 and when he was made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him.
