Mark
14:50
"And they
all left him and fled." ESV
Jesus Christ knew
they would come for Him, that He would be murdered, and that all would forsake
Him. We are all just like the disciples aren't we? When things get surprisingly
scary, we run with fear and worry, and wonder why this thing is happening. We
often times blame God for letting such things happen. It is time for us to be
more like Jesus Christ, than like the disciples that terrible evening. They ran
from the very thing that would crush Satan and death, the very act that would
set us all free to live for Christ throughout eternity. If any of us is
suffering, or worried, or questioning God about a great difficulty, be
encouraged! Our Lord is working. His grace will raise you above the circumstance
and He will be glorified. Look at the agony Jesus went through in Gethsemane and
the victory of His resurrection.
Heavenly Father,
forgive us for questioning You when things go wrong in our lives. How we praise
You for the agony and victory Jesus Christ went through at Calvary. Help us to
be open to the Holy Spirit to remind us that all things will result in our own
good and for Your glory. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ we pray,
Amen.
