Our Silent Savior

And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. And they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate. And Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, “You have said so.” And the chief priests accused him of many things. And Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you.” But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.

Our Silent Savior
In this moment, Jesus stood silent before His accusers, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy of the suffering servant who, "like a sheep before its shearers is silent." His silence wasn't weakness but strength, a testimony to His perfect submission to the Father's will. As He bore the weight of our sins, He chose not to defend Himself, knowing His sacrificial death would bring us life. When faced with false accusations or injustice, we too can find peace in Christ's example, trusting in God's ultimate justice and plan for our lives. Let us rest in the Savior who remained silent for our sake, securing our redemption with His steadfast love.
