For the joy set before Him…the joy of seeing sinners saved; the joy of reconciling sinners back to God; the joy of restoring your relationship with God that had been severed by sin; the joy of repairing that shattered mirror of the Almighty you were meant to be…Jesus willingly endured the cross with a joyful acceptance of My will, heedless of its shame. [Father God…Heb 12:2]
