Go With God's Flow

Then came the first day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.

And Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.” 

They said to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare it?”

And He said to them, “When you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters.  And you shall say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’  And he will show you a large, furnished upper room; prepare it there.” 

And they left and found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.

Luke 22:7-13 

I am in the midst of having a spiritual ah-ha moment.  I have been highly agitated the last few days because somethings have not been going in what I consider to be the right way or even in a way that most normal people would consider to be within the boundaries of not the best, but O.K.  I am angry that God allows for people to do stupid things which impact innocent people.  I must confess I been doing some serious yelling at God.

Then I am reading this scripture about the preparations for what we know as the Last Supper – which is perhaps one of the biggest events chronicled in the Bible.  The Disciples did not spend weeks on the telephone booking a venue; they did what Jesus told them to do and everything was just as He said it would be.

I am thinking that I need to make less of the circumstances of the moment and trust God that the final outcome will be a greater testimony to the power of God than if everything was done the way that I consider to be the right way.

Follow the man with the water jug, because God knows where He is going.
