Citizens Of The New Kingdom - April 14

When Jesus saw his mother there and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby,  he said to her, 'woman, here is your son'. And to the disciple, 'here is your mother.' From this time on, this disciple took her into his home. John 19:26-27

Jesus,  our King knew that he had to give up everything to be the perfect sacrifice for our sins. He could not even hold on to the love of his mother. 

Mary could not claim that she helped her son get through the agony of the cross. 

All the disciples ran away from him, Judas betrayed him, Peter denied that he knew him. He hung alone on that cross. He saw his mother and his friend and he knew there was one more thing to give up. King Jesus gave up everything so that citizens of the New Kingdom could have everything.
