Your ultimate hope must be in God - not in Trump, Clinton, gold, your 401-K or other people or things! Death will affect your life - family, friend, co-workers, even you!
Mark 14:32-42
Expect Weakness
If you get this: you will not end up being mad at God!
Nor, mad at life.
Nor, think that all is not fair to you in life!
You will experience problems with: money, work, in all of your relationships, etc.
God is there to help you through these times of stress and trial.
Accept You Are Human
Verse 37
Know, get used to the idea, that you are going to fail.
Peter, James and John needed to stay awake but could not.
Just like them, we are clueless as to the future, the importance of events now.
Hence, we must always be aware and prepared, in order to protect ourselves.
Be Driven To Prayer
Verse 36
Talk to the only hope you have!
God is your father.
He knows you.
Intimately, familiar, safe.
And all prayer is: Your will, not mine .....
Proceed In Strength
Verse 43
God provides the strength, you need, when you need, for what you face!
Get up and go.
And even Jesus was in need of strength for what he was about to face ...
An angel came and comforted him .... but you have to read a little more to know that!
