The Daily Blade: Joby Martin & Kyle Thompson #71 - Joby Martin // The Third Saying
The third saying of Christ on the cross reveals Jesus' compassion when, even while bearing the world's sin, He made provision for His mother's care by entrusting her to the disciple John. This profound moment demonstrates that if Jesus could attend to personal needs during His crucifixion, the resurrected Christ is certainly concerned with our daily struggles and anxieties.
• Jesus spoke these words from John 19:25-27 while accomplishing world redemption
• Mary, who once counted her infant son's fingers and toes, now witnessed those same hands and feet pierced with nails
• Christ's compassion extended to practical concerns even in His moment of greatest suffering
• Scripture reminds us that God cares about details - knowing the hairs on our heads and providing for birds and flowers
• Revelation 8:1 describes heaven going silent for 30 minutes so God could hear the prayers of His people
• We are invited to cast all our cares upon Him because we matter deeply to God
