Mark 12:8
When we think of what God has done for us by sending his Son, it is difficult to understand why he would go through with it. He is so great, and so much bigger than any of us. Nothing could make him do anything. Nobody could force him to action. So, he chose to do it this way. Why?
Well, being wise and good, God knows that the best victory is the clearest one. Doing it this way, it is very clear that God has been more than extremely gracious. He is absolutely the hero. There is no other explanation. And, this is the way he wants it.
Heavenly Father, we know that you are good. When we think back on how you have blessed our lives, we realize that you always do what is best. Our mothers were just the people we needed. You bless us through these precious people that you put in our lives. Thank you! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
