Tough Situations

We all face tough situations from time to time. But we can learn a lot from the way Jesus handled a tough situation with his disciples.
When Jesus was faced with his impending death, he told his disciples what was about to happen – including the fact that they were going to crumble under pressure and run away. Jesus could have told them that everything was going to be fine, but he chose to tell them the painful truth. Jesus was a straight shooter – I like his style. But after he told of their coming failure, he looked ahead to their restoration.
If Jesus were here today he’d speak to us frankly about our problems. But he would also point to the better times ahead – to our future with him. It amazes me that Jesus knows our past, present and future failings, yet he loves us anyway!
