Mark 9:33
Ah, so rather than ask Jesus more about the resurrection, they devolved into their favorite subject. Jesus, knowing that they didn’t ask him about what he has said for fear of embarrassment, embarrassed them now by asking about their new subject. They had thought it was safely hidden from him, but of course it was not.
Heavenly Father, we can always be transparent with you. You already know it all anyway. You know our limitations, our hangups, our misconceptions. We are not hiding anything from you, so why should we try? Thank you for your mercy in spite of all that you know about us. Thank you for forgiveness in Christ! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
