“The Scripture was fulfilled, which says, “He was counted with transgressors.”” – Mark 15:28
When I read this verse, I envision Jesus in His final moments, surrounded by those who had turned against Him, yet fulfilling the prophecy of His sacrificial love.
Mark 15:28 reminds us that Jesus was counted among transgressors, illustrating His willingness to identify with our struggles and sins. This profound act of solidarity demonstrates His grace and mercy, showing that no one is beyond His reach. As Christians, we can apply this by embracing those who feel marginalized or judged, extending grace and compassion just as Christ did for us.
Prayer:
Dear Lord, thank You for identifying with us in our brokenness and for Your love that knows no bounds. Help me to extend that same love and grace to others, especially those who feel alone or rejected. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
