Mark 14

In reading this chapter several times, the one verse that jumped out to me the most is v 26.
Mark 14: 26 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
KJV

This takes place right after the last supper and before he goes into the garden to pray.  His heart had to be heavy and a little sad, for he knew he would be beaten cruelly and crucified shortly.  He had to know the pain and suffering he was about to endure. Yet he sang a hymn of exhortation of praise to God.

Take heart my fellow Real men, for the things we will go through will not compare to what he endured for us and our families.  Lets sing a hymn of praise to our Lord, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, for he is great and his mercy endureth for ever.  Talk of all his wonderful works, lift his name and give him praise, worship him with all your heart and be glad in him.  Give a great praise to our great and mighty God for he is worthy of praise.
