I was reading today where Jesu...I love your list. <br /><br />I was reading today where Jesus, knowing he was about to be crucified (talk about being walked all over!), was answering questions of Pilate. As he aswered he remained calm, steadfast and honest. He knew that there was purpose in what was going on and he knew WHO was in control. I think if we remain on mission, stay focused on our purpose--to glorify God, we remember that God is in control and allow him to direct our actions and words. <br /><br />Along similar lines, I think, I was reminded this week that we can not "save the world." When Jesus died there were still hurting people, sick people, lost people. He fulfilled his purpose anyway. I think we sometimes feel the weight of the world on our shoulders and want to solve every problem(huge social problems, fix the entire government, etc.) and remove every sin that is happening--right now. But that is impossible. We can't do that. We can be obedient and take the next step God puts before us until Jesus returns. Only then will everything be made right.Keeliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05949437924682031860noreply@blogger.com
