I always get this feeling on Good Friday. It is painful, when I see our blessed Lord getting throttled. Then I realize that His suffering has purpose. And was predestined by God, the Father, with Christ's concurrence.
Picture this: God Himself humiliated His person by becoming a human being. Additionally, He allowed Himself to beaten to pulp, in order to redeem mankind with His love. He could have called out conflagration to destroy those in the employ of satan; He didn't. Recall this: He suffered so that we may live eternally. Imagine this: someone taking so much punishment .. because He loved you. If that doesn't rock you, nothing will.
This is Easter, the celebration of our Lord's resurrection. After He decesended in hell, in order to give hope to those dwelling there, we can expect the same.
He loves us. Never forget this: our suffering is not without purpose. We take part of His cross. We show our love for Him. What more can we ask? Do more, reflect Him and keep His ministry.
God as a person, imagine this.
God Bless you.
