Rejoicing Amidst Sorrow00:03:22
Hey guys, real quick before we get started, I have a small request.
If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show, would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five star review?
This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
Thanks.
Jesus said, Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
You're listening to Daily Truth.
Jesus, I believe the scripture teaches that Jesus, even in his Incarnation, even in his earthly ministry, was a happy person.
Now, I am aware of the scriptures that say that he was acquainted with grief and a man of sorrows.
So, certainly, Jesus experienced sorrow, but even in relation to Jesus' sorrow, it was not sorrow about himself.
Jesus wasn't disappointed with himself, he wasn't frustrated with his own deficiencies or his own lack because he has no lack.
Even in his earthly ministry, he is the sinless Son of God.
And so, his Frustration, his sorrows that Isaiah speaks of in Isaiah chapter 53.
The sorrow of Christ is ultimately in relation to his love for his own triune self, his love for his Father.
And the fact that the people, this fallen world that surrounds him, are in rebellion to the Father.
Jesus is often grieved or troubled in spirit, but even in his troubledness, it is in relation to the unbelief of his disciples, the unbelief of the crowds who he's.
Preaching to.
So Jesus' disappointment is ultimately in relation to others.
And even in the midst of this disappointment, as the scripture says elsewhere, the apostle Paul says that we as Christians, when we're shaped more and more into the image of Christ, we are still sorrowful at this time in this life.
And yet in the midst of sorrow, always rejoicing.
Rejoicing because even in the midst of sorrowful circumstances, sorrowful surroundings, sorrowful situations, we have this rejoicing in the The end game in the ultimate reality that we trust and hope for and anticipate, which is that we are going to be with God forevermore and that He Himself will wipe away every tear.
There will be no more mourning.
There will be no more sadness.
There will be no more death, no more sickness, no more disease, no more loss.
That we will be completely filled with joy and peace and satisfaction in God forever.
And so, even in the midst of sorrowful circumstances, we have sorrow and yet we are always.
Rejoicing.
And so, my point in all this is to say that at a human level, so much of our own frustration and disappointment and sadness is in relation to the fact that we don't have any true perfections.
We are imperfect.
We are fallen.
And yet, God is perfect.
And so, it only makes sense that God would be constantly and continually and forever, eternally celebrating and experiencing nothing but pleasure in his own self.
No More Mourning00:00:39
