Feeling agony is very difficult on us in many ways. We may suffer physically in ways that have lasting impacts upon our bodies. We may be troubled mentally and emotionally in a manner that affects our lives for years. Jesus suffered agony in a variety of ways as He paid the price for our salvation and redemption.
Luke 22:44 says, “And being in agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.” Although, He is God, Jesus paid a great and precious price for our salvation. He suffered an excruciating death on the cross. But even more than that, all of our sins were placed upon Him who had known no sin. Sin’s stain was extremely painful for the perfect and holy Son of God.
