Luke 23:46 And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice, He said, “Father, ‘into Your hands I commit My spirit.’” Having said this, He breathed His last.

I do find it very encouraging that Jesus would use the same words as the Psalmist had done so many years previously. For me this shows us that Jesus had submitted totally to being human.

That is a defining thought for me, that our God should lower Himself to such an extent as to be one of us.

Let that not be discouraging but very encouraging because He knew that He would be with God in Heaven once again. Let us take a firm hold of that same promise for ourselves!
