'Jesus Knew His Times.'
John 13:31.
a) When Judas had gone out,
b) Jesus said,
c) "Now is the Son of Man Glorified,
d) "And God is Glorified in Him."
(This QT reminds me that Jesus Knew His Times)
PRAY: For our alertness, in every way.

'The Discipline That The Lord Gives.'
a) Hebrews 12:6. This Discipline comes from the Lord's motives of Love and Acceptance, the Father Love of God.
b) Hebrews 12:11. Its fruit is very beautiful.
c) Ephesians 6:4. Natural fathers should follow the example of Father God.
(Through this Second one I find The Discipline That The Lord Gives)
PRAY: That Christian families and Churches will follow the model of The Discipline That The Lord Gives.

Chris.
The Lord Jesus gave us many Teachings, not just from His Words, but also from His Life, one of them is here, in this QT. He knew what was going to happen and yet His responses were continuously and consistently Graceful. He knew that Glory was coming, and the pathway to that Glory was very painful. No human being will ever have to go through what Jesus went through for us in its entirety, although some of us may have to face persecution and even martyrdom. Whatever we may go through, Jesus has been there before us and Jesus has been there for us.
Whenever we, or those people whom we know or love, go through difficult times in our lives, we can take great comfort in this: that Jesus has already been there for us.
