” AND HE BECAME DEEPLY TROUBLED AND DISTRESSED. HE TOLD THEM, ” MY SOUL IS CRUSHED WITH GRIEF TO THE POINT OF DEATH.” ” MARK 14: 33 & 34
In Mark 14: 33 & 34 Jesus was talking with some of his disciples just before he was to be turned over to be crucified. Even Jesus became distressed and troubled at times. He was on this earth and was born a human just as you and me. Jesus knew his mission. He knew what was going to happen. He also knew that God, at any time, could save him. But that was not God’s will. Instead, the plan was to save us. Every situation that you and I confront is nothing in comparison to what Jesus went through. He has already walked in our footsteps and has already gone through the hurts, persecutions, sadness and all other human feelings we go through. We should never feel bad that we feel these emotions. They are a part of the way we live. However, we should not act upon them. Instead, we should trust in our Lord Jesus to go to bat for us. He knows what it is like to hurt. He knows what it is like to be ridiculed and laughed at. He wants the best for us. We should pray and thank him each day for what he has done for us. Jesus is Lord! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
