Mark 14:28
How could Jesus have said any clearer that he was going to rise from the dead? And yet, his disciples failed to understand or even believe at first. We all tend to misunderstand or fail to comprehend when things don’t fit in our idea of how the future will play out. We have the ‘always has’ syndrome. Since certain things always have happened a certain way, we expect certain things to transpire, even though we cannot possibly know the future.
Heavenly Father, thank you for guiding us even though we often think we already know the way. If we will submit to you, you will direct our hearts, even though our hearts don’t want to be directed. You are so wise! Only you can handle our problems. Only you know the future. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
