Jesus redefines what it means to succeed. We think of triumph as overcoming trouble. But here we learn that "Triumphant" means giving all we have even though we have a million reasons to hold back and be selfish. This is the heart of an intimate relationship with Jesus. In religion we are allowed to hold a lot back for ourselves, as long as we check the right boxes. In relationship, we give all, out of love.
