Reflection on Matthew 26----
Jesus is the BETTER anointed one, whose anointing is not used for selfish gain but is poured out as an offering for the salvation of ALL peoples.
Jesus is the BETTER Passover host, who feeds us with eternal nourishment that will sustain our bodies, minds, spirits and souls forever.
Jesus is the BETTER Passover BREAD which feeds us with an everlasting satisfaction that nothing else on earth can fulfill.
Jesus is the BETTER Passover BLOOD which washes away all sins conclusively and eternally.
Jesus is the BETTER Pray-er because he accepts and embodies God's word as he listens and obeys despite being abandoned by his friends who he asks to stay awake and pray with him. He NEVER gives up on those He loves. He NEVER lets down those close to Him even when they deny Him
Where is your hope? Learning to love and be faithful through focusing on eternal hope that shines through the bleakest seasons of life.
