Christ saw his afflictions. Afflictions...

Christ saw his afflictions. Afflictions did not blind him, not stupefy him. Afflictions did not make him insensible to affliction (which is a frequent, but a desperate condition). He saw it. And he maintained the dignity of his station. Still he played the man; still he survived to glorify God and to be an example to other men of patience under god’s corrections, and of thankfulness in God’s deliverance.
