Psalm 136:12

We should realize that Jesus willingly fights and intercedes on our behalf. We should remember as our efforts to help others go largely overlooked and unappreciated, so also do the manifold works of God. To see our Savior as Undefeated is no simple task. As we are battered and knocked down so often in this short but intense life, we may secretly wonder about the power of God. Why would a loving Father let us suffer so? Why should we be put in the ring with forces greater than us? If we count the earthly cost of Jesus' divine qualities, we see He bears the scars of many previous battles, most of which are unknown to us. Perhaps then our scars can be put in perspective. Would Jesus have the compassion needed to forgive and have mercy on us had he not suffered as we too must suffer? Did living the life of a mortal add to His infinite abilities to understand the frailties of His children? Indeed it is so. Not only did Jesus willingly allow those things to happen to Himself but He also allows them to happen to us. In the presence of man's arrogance, to destroy that which is spiritually superior to him, Jesus suffered more than we will ever know. Let us choose to be in the ring, to fight the good fight of faith, and be grateful that we are in the same corner with the Undefeated one. Regardless of how humility is scorned as weakness by the ungodly, one scar, in the true unselfish and humble service of Christ, is greater than all the crowns made for all the kings of the world.
