Today's Verse - Hebrews 2:10

God, for whom and through whom everything was made, chose to bring many children into glory. And it was only right that he should make Jesus, through his suffering, a perfect leader, fit to bring them into their salvation. (NLT)

Everything belongs to God, and all things were created by his power. So God did the right thing when he made Jesus perfect by suffering, as Jesus led many of God's children to be saved and to share in his glory.  (CEV)

It was appropriate for God, for whom and through whom everything exists, to use experiences of suffering to make perfect the pioneer of salvation. This salvation belongs to many sons and daughters whom he’s leading to glory. (CEB)

Pain is an important part of life. Remember the pain and suffering Christ has gone through for our salvation, giving us a perfect Father, removing the fear of death and making himself someone who will know, understand and bring comfort for when we are in pain. Remember His sacrifice, His pain, His love.
