“He shall see of the travail [hard work] of His soul, and shall be satisfied” (Isaiah 53:11).
Have you ever spent a lot of time making something, but then were not satisfied with it? Or have you ever spent a lot of money buying something you really wanted, only to be disappointed in it? I have done both of those things at different times in my life. I wished I had never bothered to make some of the things I thought I could make, and I wished I had not spent my money on some of the things I bought. But when the Lord Jesus has us up there with Him in heaven, and sees us in the perfection that He has made us, He will be totally satisfied.
It cost the Lord Jesus all His suffering in the three hours of darkness on the cross, in order to have us up there with Him. We will never be able to understand all that He suffered. Yet in that day He will say, “It was all worthwhile!” How great His love is!
