Here is Jesus at the end of His earthly ministry, on his way to glory and his soul is troubled. But for this hour he was sent, for He was the only way to redeem lost man back to a Holy God. This was the purpose he came into the world. On His way to the grave Jesus went through some things on our behalf. He was met with conflicts and confrontations, he was alienated, persecuted, and rejected, yet he endured to the grave for our salvation. Look what Jesus did on His way to the grave.
On His way to glory he glorified the Father, as his work now complete, he had given sight to blind eyes, so now man could see that he was lost and in need of a savior. He had put hearing in deaf ear, so man could hear the word of God. He put speaking in the mouth of the dumb, so man could share the good news of the gospel. He put walking in the legs of the lame, so man could stand firm on God's word, and walk up right is His righteousness. He even called the dead back to life, so man could live a new life as he was no longer dead in sin. On His way to glory Jesus paved the way for lost man to be saved and live with Him in eternal glory. Jesus willing to lay down His life that we might know his love, receive his mercy, and live in His grace. Jesus obedient unto death that we might be obedient unto life everlasting, all on His way to glory. Jesus accepted for us, the wage paid by sin. Jesus died that we might have life and life more abundantly.
All that Jesus went through was for our good, not his. He was whipped for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. He was charged with our crimes and put to death with our hatred. Yet He did it all because of His love, His grace and His mercy, and to bring glory to His Father. On His way to the glory and Jesus saw you, and loved you, and he died for you. If you were the only person in the world, he still would of died for you. This He did on His way to glory
