The Savior Comes, 2023

Stay and keep watch. Read Matthew chapter 26.

As we read through this chapter, we get a glimpse into some of the final moments of Jesus’s life here on Earth. Jesus spends time with his disciples and then he spends time with his father. Jesus goes to pray about what is coming up. He asks for support from his friends. He asks them to keep watch and pray with him.

When we are going through difficult situations, do we reach out to those people around us? Do we seek to find those who will stand with us in prayer and support? When others reach out to us, are we the reliable prayer warriors that will stand with them? Jesus was getting ready to experience the most challenging trial that he would face, and he was seeking a support of those around him. Do we seek the support of those around us when life becomes challenging? Are we providing that support to others as they go through difficulties?
