“But Rabbi,” (the disciples) said, “a short while ago the Jews there tried to stone You, and yet You are going back?” John 11:8
Today you are invited to consider how you feel when you have to go into a testing situation – whether it involves danger, a problematic work situation, a challenging family confrontation or anything else that is difficult. How do you deal with the pressure before you enter this situation? How do you prepare? What part does Jesus play? What difference does He make? Speak to Him about anything that is facing you at the moment that you are delaying because of the emotion it produces in you. What is His reply? How do your feelings change if you confront the situation with Jesus beside you?
May God bless you with His presence, at your invitation, in every difficult situation you have to face.
