Mark 9:31-32
“For He taught His disciples and said to them, ‘The Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of men, and they will kill Him. And after He is killed, He will rise the third day.’ But they did not understand this saying, and were afraid to ask Him.” 

We take the Spirit’s teaching to heart. We submit to God’s will and trust Him. We await and prepare for Christ’s return. We contribute to the salvation of others. We hope in grace.

Hebrews 12:2
“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

The Passion of Christ teaches us how to behave in suffering. We trust God, continue to do His will and serve Him. Christ will give victory to those who persevere until His return.

"I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and  go to the Father.”

We are children of God, sent into the world to serve Him. We leave the world to go to the Father. By following Christ’s example and with His help, we will reach our goal.
