He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces, he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.
Isaiah 53:3 (NIV)
Today an acquaintance of mine insulted me. And it all happened right in front of a crowd of my peeps. Worst of all, some of them laughed! It was bewildering and heartbreaking. I am a ball of hurt right now. When You were on earth, You were called a Man of Sorrows. So, You know how I feel. Jesus, please sit with me and hold me close. I am in need of understanding and a God-sized hug right now. And help me to forgive the woman who did this to me…
Questions for Pondering…
Why do people choose to humiliate me in pubic? How do I react when that happens?
Have I ever done that to others? What were the reasons behind my unkindness?
