As Mark’s Gospel nears its close, we see the death of Jesus. Mark timestamps the crucifixion so that we know Jesus hung on the cross for about six hours—six hours of grueling pain. When you find yourself waiting, you can remember that Jesus waited in suffering to pay the price for your sins. You may be waiting on something, but you don’t have to wait on a Savior to show up. He already did, and He waited for you.
