ISAIAH 50 :4-9
MATHEW 26:14-25
REFLECTION.
Isaiah's servant of God was subjected to suffering and humiliation unfairly. He had done no wrong that deserve such treatment. But he bore it all without bitterness, without retaliation. He was able to do that because God was with him all the time, giving him strength to endure his trails. Jesus was that servant of God that Isaiah prophesied. One of his greatest pains must have been the knowledge that one of his companions , one of the twelve whom he had been grooming to become apostles, was planning to hand him over to his enemies. But, the servant of God that he was, knew that his father would see him through his trails and tribulations. God has continued to do that for his faithful and loyal servants.
