Pastor's Blog - 04/26/2008
This past week we studied Jesus' example to us in prayer. It's filled with petitions; and the only logical conclusion for me is that He is willing and able to give what is being petitioned. One of the seven petitions was that God's will would be done on earth as it is in heaven. Jesus actually prayed that prayer again in Gethsemane. This got me thinking…
I was talking to a friend this week on how love can be turned into a bullet that shoots your heart. It's one of the few times that you can be shot in the heart and not die. Okay, that is almost true because that night, after Jesus surrendered His will to the Father's will, love (refuted) did become a bullet shot into his heart... and he did die.
I wonder if we get sidetracked on the gory drama and miss that Jesus experienced love refused, and that it killed him. Maybe those shots to our hearts of love lost (parents loosing a child, spouse rejecting an innocent spouse, etc.) – where it hurts inside and we can't rub it to make it feel better – are glimpses of the hurt heart that killed Jesus…
