Anna, this post is a perfect insight into Easter. It really struck me

It profoundly reveals the pure heart of Jesus’s love, His humanity and His profound humble obedience to the Father’s Will for our sake.

The true spirit of Jesus shines through those few words that you highlight, more clearly than a thousand other words.

And for those who never understood the connection, or perhaps understood it but never explored it, the statement “My God, My God, why have you forsaken me” comes from the start of Psalm 22. I would invite everyone to read it today or tomorrow and to spend some time slowly meditating on it.
