John 12: 27 “Now My
soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But
for this purpose I came to this hour. 28 Father,
glorify Your name.”
Then a voice came
from heaven, saying, “I have both glorified it and
will glorify it again.”
29 Therefore the people who stood by and heard it said
that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to Him.”
============
“I’m not going down there!” I said in terror. With fears of
the “Boogey Man” being in the basement of our home, I refused to go downstairs
unless someone was with me. All the lights had to be on.
- Sometimes I get scared of the unknown.
- Sometimes I get worried about situations people have told me about.
- Sometimes I get filled with fear over a huge situation facing me.
Death was facing JESUS and HIS humanity showed. HE expressed
HIS fear out loud. THE FATHER heard HIS voice and responded with assurance. JESUS
accepted the responsibility.
- GOD is there when I have fears.
- GOD is there when I have doubts.
- GOD is there when I worry about big situations.
Worry easily creeps in when the answer to a problem is out
of my control. I mean when I cannot do something to resolve the situation, my
mind spins, trying to come up with a solution. BUT GOD knows the outcome.
HE wants me to trust that HE has the situation under control
and HE can use the circumstance for HIS glory. HE rewards me greatly for obeying
HIS plan and for this I am grateful.
- Are you worried?
- Is there a very large situation in front of you that seems too big to handle?
- Will you ask GOD to not only give you strength, but comfort as well?
