Journey With Jesus 365Намуна

When we fear something bad is about to happen, we often get a nervous feeling in the pit of our stomach. For children, it's that sinking feeling when they are sent to the principal's office. For the adult, it can be nightmares turned into reality as the worst-case scenario happens. There could be the bad news of being laid off from a job, bankruptcy, the diagnosis of a terminal illness, or the potential passing of a loved one. Jesus was not exempt from feeling emotion when He walked on this earth. We can see His distress when He prays to the Father that this cup will pass from Him. When we find ourselves in these moments of great stress, we can learn from Christ, and pray for the Father to do His will. We should also ask other believers to pray with us. Even when we feel the worst, we must pray and wait for God's will to be done.

Do you wait upon the Lord, as Jesus waited for the will of His Father?
