From Isaiah 52

13See, my servant will act wisely;

he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.

14Just as there were many who were appalled at him —

his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being

and his form marred beyond human likeness—

15so he will sprinkle many nations,

and kings will shut their mouths because of him.

For what they were not told, they will see,

and what they have not heard, they will understand.

Great passage; good to read in conjunction with Isaiah 53.

In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing warfare. Pray hard and long. Pray for your brothers and sisters. Keep your eyes open. Keep each other's spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out.

I am thankful today, and every day: "Thine, O Lord is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all. Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all." (1 Chronicles 29:11-12)

Most Christians miss the part about Christ having been beaten so badly that He was marred and disfigured beyond the likeness of a man.

Good to remember also that, although the Lord Jesus' physical sufferings were immense, His moral and spiritual sufferings at the Cross - which He contemplated at Gethsemane - were far greater.

Yup,Im still coughing a little,and have the sniffles and a raspy voice
but I think I am on the mend.
If you have had flu...it can take a while to go. I have been recovering for a month...admittedly old age (oops shouldn't say that) and a lung condition don't help. Today I feel so good, and getting back to normal. I do hope you can rest as it helps recovery. Rest in an afternoon, may the Lord grant you health and strength and a good night time sleep. Praying ...
