on Matthew 20:17-19

I guess I never thought too extensively about the suffering and trauma Jesus must have gone through PRIOR to his arrest... knowing what was to happen and being able to stop it but choosing to be obedient all the way to the end.  The anticipation of something bad in some ways is almost worse than the actual something dreaded.


And I'm a bit embarrassed that the image in our book (p. 47) of Aslan walking alone into the hands of the White Witch made more of an impact on me than the passage from Matthew 20.  Thank you, C.S. Lewis!!!

How about you?
