Isaiah 49:6

‘Indeed He says,
‘It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant
To raise up the tribes of Jacob,
And to restore the preserved ones of Israel;
I will also give You as a light to the Gentiles,
That You should be My salvation to the ends of the earth.’’ (Isaiah 49:6)

This made me very happy. We are the gentiles, of course. Here it is saying that Jesus, the Messiah, the Servant, was considered too great to just be salvation to the Jews. It was too small a thing just to save the Jews. It wouldn’t befit the glory of the Son to only save one nation. His glory demanded that He be a light to the Gentiles, that is us, as well. How wonderfully we have benefited from the glory of God!
