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?

Shabbat Shalom!
Over the past 8 months I’ve had many “down” moments, where I felt crushed and powerless in light of the massive spiritual blindness and brainwashing the prince of this world is doing to the gullible masses.
These below verses kept my spirit afresh and strengthened me a lot!
“Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.”
(Galatians 6:7-10)
