TM: Wow! Really good! Hat tip @Ben

* * * * * * *

When Pontius Pilate told Christ he had the power to crucify him or set him free and Jesus looked him straight in the eyes and said you have no power but that which the Father gave you.

Sometimes I think about this moment in awe.

I mean wow. Really let that sink in.

Pilate really thought he was in control of the situation but little did he know he was simply a pawn in a divine plan.

Think about the freedom Christ was living in that He refused to fight the will of God, even when allowing that will to bring Him to the cross.

Often we find it easy to doubt God when something happens in our lives that we don't understand makes us uncomfortable or uneasy.

But what if we had the faith to look at our perceived problems dead in the eyes and tell them that you have no power but that which my father gave you?

Do what you were built to do.

There are signs & signals in everyone's life for what that is.
