—Matthew 26:20-25
by: Angie Osborn.
Jesus knew that his immediate future held pain and sorrow. He knew that being betrayed by a friend was only a small part of the pain he would endure before completing his purpose. He did not turn back or run away. He faced humiliation, pain, and death on a cross to fulfill his calling. At times, we, too, are called to unpleasant tasks. God may impress upon our hearts a calling that is difficult or unpleasant. As we strive to be Christ-like, we must follow God's leading and fulfill his calling in our lives.
