Listen to the Everyday Prayers with Million Praying Moms Podcast every weekday to start your day in God’s Word and prayer for the people you love most.
We know what happened to Jesus on His cross. His entire life led up to that point—His death. Not only death, but because it was public and painful, the cross would also bring shame, sorrow, and suffering. Jesus knew this even before He came to earth. In Isaiah’s prophecy about Jesus in chapter 53, he wrote, “He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.” The cross that we are to bear includes our own shame, sorrow, and suffering. It sounds overwhelming, doesn’t it? But this verse says we are to bear it.

Loved it. This really helped me because i was ready to go in guns blazing. My sons baseball team seem very cliques but i didn’t know how to word it. Parents are not supportive and the coaches seem afraid to intercede when parents begin to verbally tear down another teammate. It was very disheartening to me.
