Today we read John 17. When earthly kings are glorified, we might think of crowns and gold and splendor. In John 17, Jesus explains that God the Father is about to glorify Him, the eternal King–on the cross. This concept is difficult to understand. Nevertheless, Jesus is about to take this painful glorification upon Himself–to save *you* from the consequences of your sin, from eternal death, and from the devil. How wonderful! Thank you, Jesus!
