Mark 10:32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,
On His way to Jerusalem Jesus knew that His death at Calvary met the just demands of a holy God, that God Almighty would be satisfied and lost sinners could be saved.
On the way to Calvary the plan of salvation was on His mind. His death burial and resurrection began at the cross. Nothing would stand in His way to offer salvation and eternal life to all who believe. Jesus was focused on people. When He was on the cross, I was on His mind and you were on His mind.
Blood was on his scarlet robe, Stained a crimson red.
Though his eyes were on the crowd that day,
He looked ahead in time,
For when he was on the cross I was on his mind.
He knew me, yet he loved me
He whose glory makes the heavens shine
So unworthy of such mercy,
Yet when he was on the cross I was on his mind.
