"Jesus said absolutely nothing in him in reply, so the governor was very
surprised" (Matthew 27:14). Jesus had not come to escape death. He had
come to die. Pilate was surprised. He did not understand. This was not
the normal response. Jesus could not be understood according to the
thinking of other people. He was a special person. He had a special
purpose. He was heading to the Cross. The place of His suffering was to
become the place of our salvation. Thank You, Jesus.
God's Word is "a lamp to our feet and a light to our path." He has "wondrous things" to teach us as we pray "Open my eyes that I may see" (Psalm 119:105, 18, 11). "May God's blessing surround you each day, as you trust Him and walk in His way. May His presence within guard and keep you from sin, go in peace, go in joy, go in love." "Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your Name give glory, because of Your mercy and Your truth" (Psalm 115:1).
