DAD'S RAMBLINGS -- WHO IS IN CONTROL?

WHO IS IN CONTROL?

Matthew 26:17-19

"Now on the first day of the Feast of the Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying to Him, 'Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?' And He said, 'Go into the city to a certain man, and say to Him, "The Teacher says, 'My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with My disciples.' " ' So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them; and they prepared the Passover."

The disciples were oblivious to the significance of this Passover. They thought it was just like any other Passover. But Jesus knew what this particular Passover was going to hold for Him – that on this Passover He would be be sacrificed for the sins of the world. It is amazing that Jesus faced this event with such calmness. He is not in a dizzy because He is in control. He knows that this is the eternal plan of the God-head. I, too, can face the future without fear because of the calm assurance that God is in control. He will work His plan and I can rest in that.

TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: We can face the future because of the assurance that God is in control.

Have a calm day. Love you.
