Thursday of the Last 7 Days

Good morning and happy Thursday. The Feast of the Unleavened Bread". So Jesus gets His guys to find them a place to have their feast. A lot is going to happen today, but in a nut shell, they have their Last Supper, now our communion. They we're told they would deny Him and that one would betray Him. Thay went to Gethsemane to pray. Here is where I had questions in my learning about Jesus. In His prayer to God, as He sweats blood, He asked if there was another way of doing this. To let this cup pass, but if it's your will.... Why? Was He chickening out? Did He not want to save us now?  Nope. He knew that as He hung on that cross He would become sin and as sin, God would not look at at Him and He would, for the first and only time, be out of God's presence. He could take the beating, the mockery, the humiliation, but not being away from God. Can You?  Can you stand up for what He has you to do and follow His will in spite of what is going to happen because of it? We owe Him at least that much. His buds turned Him in and also left Him, denying Him just like he said. Prophecy fulfilled. This is real and it has happened to save us all. No matter how far away from Him we let ourselves go, there is always a road Home. For Jesus to ask not be away from God, it must be amazing place to be. See you there. In love always. <><
