saying, "Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done." (Luke 22:42 ESV)
I find that I must constantly remind myself of this passage from Luke. Jesus, facing death on the cross, prays to His Father to spare Him, but then says the words above.
How many times do we face situations where we can see where God is leading us yet we feel that it is not the right path. We plead and ask for a different outcome. But we must always remember thet only He knows what is best for us. Just like a parent knows what is best for their child, we are God's children and must obey His commands.
The next time your child doesn't obey, reflect on the example you are setting. Are you obeying your Father?
God bless you on this Thursday.
