Live to Love Scripture Encouragement John 11.8

John 11:8 The disciples said to Him, "Rabbi, the Jews were just now seeking to stone You, and are You going there again?" Remember that twice the Jews had picked up stones to kill Jesus. If left up to the disciples, the decision to return to Judea would have been made based upon natural reasoning, outward circumstances, and history. They were concerned for His welfare and probably their own as well. They would have missed God’s will and seeing God’s glory. How many times have we done the same? We chose the path of least resistance or the road which offered what looked like a happier and more comfortable outcome. To The Spirit’s point through John: that’s not how we make decisions as we live to love with Jesus. If we don’t make decisions based on our natural reason, outward circumstances and history, then how do we know what to do? Tune in tomorrow to find out.
