He Gets Us: Questions Jesus Asked | Plan 3නියැදිය

Jesus had questions, too

It seemed everyone had questions for Jesus but Jesus had his own questions. We’ll look at a few of them up close in the days ahead. For now, consider this—Jesus had questions that he struggled with, but he also trusted God. He knew how things would end. But in the moment . . . Jesus had questions. Like us.

At his darkest moment amidst the trees of Gethsemane and perhaps the most honest moment of his life with his face in the dirt and his fist full of gravel and grass, when nothing but a couple of hours stood between him and the cross, he asked, Father, can there be another way?

When he was out with his friends on the water, he asked them, Why are you afraid?

Because he helped him before, Jesus asked Peter, Why do you doubt?

Questions aren’t bad. Most of the time they frame the reality of our situation. The thing is, if you’re courageous enough to ask the question, then you’ve got to follow through and be courageous enough to accept the answer—even if it takes you to the edge of your heart and mind. Sometimes that’s where questions take you.
