Mark 14:12
This is one of those occasions where we get to see the day to day operations of the Lord and his ministry team. It seems likely that they often assumed that they knew exactly what his next step would be. Indeed, several passages like this one indicate that there was commonly discussion among themselves as to what would transpire next.
We always want to have things to be predictable. But, it doesn’t always work out the way we think it will. In this case, they were on the right track. Nonetheless, none of them could have predicted what happened next.
Heavenly Father, you can lead us perfectly, yet we often try to make you lead us in one way or another. We can rest in you, even when we are unsure of where we are going. We can know that we are doing the things that honor you, and that we are living by your rule. Thank you for your rule in our lives, and for the way that you make things so good. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
