- We put on a façade, don't realize or show our pain
- Many types of pain: emotions, betrayal, abandonment, family
- Does God really understand our pain?
- God's greatest pain: Jesus cried out 'why have you forsaken me?'
- Jesus took on all the sin of this world
- Between 6th and 9th hour: Christ's conflict with powers of darkness, Christ’s desire for comfort from above
- He depended on God to bring Him through
- God accomplished His perfect work when it was dark and it seemed enemy had the advantage
- The victory was won in the garden when Jesus submitted Himself
- We avoid hurting people we should be ministering to.
