As Jesus spoke to the
multitude of people, He said things that didn’t make sense to their natural
mind. Much of it sounded quite bizarre;
leading some to think that He was a crazy man.
At the conclusion of His talk, the Bible says:
“From this time many of His
disciples turned back and no longer followed Him. "Do you also want to go
away?" Jesus asked the Twelve.
Simon Peter answered Him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the
words of eternal life.”
Notice that Peter doesn’t stop
there, but goes on to say, “Also we have come to BELIEVE and KNOW
that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” (John 6:66-69)
When we come to the
realization that Jesus IS who He says He is, we can fully trust Him
when He tells us something or directs us in a way that doesn’t make sense to
us. We can trust Him even when the
multitude mocks and when those who once followed Him walk away.
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher
than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah
55:9)
TRUST HIM! And trust that
His plans for you ARE good! (Jeremiah 29:11) :)
