About halfway through the
sermon the pastor said, “Some of you may think things in your life are going
good right now, you may not feel like you need this message…but six months, a
year from now you might need this message!” I thought of Jesus taking the
Twelve aside and predicting his death — that he would be mocked, insulted, spit
upon, flogged, killed and raised on the third day. “The disciples did not
understand any of this. Its meaning was hidden from them, and they did not know
what he was talking about” (Luke 18:34 NIV). I can imagine Jesus thinking, “Six
months from now you’re going to need this message.”
