Behold, we go up to Jerusalem
Matt. 20:18
O believer, in your walk through the world today, be strengthened, be comforted, be inspired, by the spectacle of the Captain of your salvation thus going up to Jerusalem! And remember, in all those apparently downward passages of life, where sorrow, and it may be death, lie before you, that all such descents, made or endured in the Spirit of Jesus, are really up-going steps, leading you to the mount of God and the resurrection glory.
