The Wonderment of The Cross is the Hidden presence of God the Father in the midst of the pain and suffering of His only Begotten Son!

Hebrews 12:2:

2fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

The real wonderment for the suffering and the pain of Jesus on the Cross in His Sufferings, was Jesus discovering God the Father's Hidden presence in the midst of His sufferings! I have to repeat this in great wonderment, notwithstanding, it is worth repeating, the real wonderment concerning the Pain of the Cross of Jesus Christ that allowed Jesus to endure the suffering with Great Joy is found in Jesus discovering God the Father's Hidden presence in the midst of His sufferings!

Christ Jesus was not focused on the injurious, injustice of the infliction of the pain and suffering by the hands of wicked puny man; for Jesus prayed to the Father for their forgivenss, when He prayed hanging on the cross, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do," Luke 23:34.

But in Jesus sufferings, He focused on the Hidden presence of God the Father, in His sufferings, Just as He appeared in the midst of the Burning bush before Moses. Jesus in His suffering in His human nature and Divine nature reached beyond His suffering, by Faith and went beyond His suffering in juxtaposition to find the Hidden presence of His Father in the midst of His sufferings and such discovery for Jesus in the midst of His sufferings and being Eternally crushed by The Father's Hand, brought Jesus great Joy to discover the Hidden presence of The Father being in the midst of His only Begotten Son's suffering, for Jesus was aware of His Father's presence, or He would not otherwise have prayed for the forgiveness of the hands of the wicked. And just that awareness of God the Father's Hidden presence brought Jesus great joy in the midst of His suffering, that caused Him to despise the shame of the cross and with great Joy endured the suffering of the cross and the Eternal wrath of God by the Hidden presence and Grace of God The Father! For the Joy set before Him allowed Jesus to endure the pain of the Cross despising puny man's shame only for Jesus to endure the pain of Separation from God the Father Until His full surrender in His victorious cry, "it is finished!"

O how we need to endure the pain and suffering of dying to this world that we may discover God's Hidden presence in the midst of our sufferings to find the greater Grace sufficient to help in our sufferings and may have the joy set before us with the discovery of God's Hidden presence in a right relationship to God in the blood of Christ!

Hebrews 12:1-4

2fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.4In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.
