What Jesus Gave Up for Lent - Control
from Salt + Light Sermons Hosted by Caleb Schaller
Lent Wednesday 3. March 4, 2026. Hebrews 5:7-9. What Jesus Gave up for Lent: Control. It's impossible to think of someone more independent or in control than God. But when God the Son became human, that changed. Hebrews tells us that he "learned obedience from the things he suffered" (Hebrews 5:8 EHV). On the way to the cross he said--your will be done, Father. On the way from the cross he said--into your hands I commit my spirit. He set independence and control down, and trusted his Father to raise him on the third day. And he invites us to trust him in the same way.
