John 19:26 says, “So Jesus, seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing there, said to his mother, "Woman, behold your son." Then he said to the disciple, "Behold your mother!" And from that hour the disciple took her into his family.” The words of Jesus to his mother are a great encouragement to our faith. If Jesus was so eager to care for his mother in her hour of need, how much more is he eager to care for his disciples who hear the Word of God today and do it. The Word of God is always calling us to sacrificial acts of love. "He who would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his own cross and follow me" (Luke 9:23). But in another sense there is nothing safer and more rewarding than to hear and do the Word of God, because Jesus said, those who hear and do the Word of God are my family. Another encouragement to our faith is if Jesus could provide for the needs of his own in a moment of his deepest need, how much more can he meet all our needs today from the right hand of God, full of power and wealth and glory. And lastly, it illustrates for us the benefits of the church, the body of Christ. The relationship between Mary and John illustrates for us the provision made for us in the body of Christ. You recall how Jesus told the rich man to sell all he had and follow him. The man turned away, and Jesus said, "How hard it will be for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." And Peter said, "Behold we have left everything and followed you." And Jesus said, "Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms for my sake and the gospel's, but that he will receive a hundred times as much now in the present age, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and farms, along with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life." Now where in this life are we going to receive 100 children and 100 mothers? Answer: in the church, the family of God.
