Predictable Pattern, Eager Listeners
During the day, Jesus taught the people in the temple area.
At night he went out of the city and stayed all night on the
Mount of Olives. Every morning all the people got up early to
go listen to Jesus at the temple.
-- Luke 21:37-38 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Jesus found eager listeners. His habit during this last week in
Jerusalem was predictable. If folks wanted to find him, they could. The
Mount of Olives was his place of rest and prayer. The Temple was his
location during the day. The people could find him, and they did. They
drew near to listen to him. Little did they know they were hearing his
last words. But, we know they were his last words before his fretful
hours with the disciples and his trip to the Cross. So let's draw near
and listen carefully and ask God to help us hear what was on Jesus'
heart. Let us give thanks that God has chosen to reveal himself to us
in such a human way.
TODAY'S PRAYER:
Father, how can I thank you for letting me overhear the last words of
Jesus as he speaks to the crowds in the Temple, goes to the Mount of
Olives, and ultimately goes to the Cross? Help me to not only hear his
words, but also to be touched and changed by them. In Jesus' name I
pray. Amen.
