Friday night, I was hanging out with Cho-friends in Memorial. At one point, Kristen, Cameron, Carley and I were having a Bible Study. We zoomed in on John 19 and discussed it for quite a bit. I had never read that much into that section, and loved it.
I read a few verses out of John 19 this morning at church. And then came the sermon.
WOW. It was centered on the part of the Crucifixion where Jesus makes provisions for his mother. Then Pastor Dave went into detail about how Mary was to put the past behind her and get over her grief and continue to live her life. It really hit me hard, and at one point Pastor Dave said "your grief may come from a hard day, a loss of a job, or a loss of a family member" and looked directly at me. He continued on about how we all have a period to grieve, but then how we have to move on and keep living our lives.
I think Pastor Dave didn't just want me to read Scripture this morning, I think he wanted to make sure that I would be there to hear what he had to say. I'm very grateful because I definitely needed to hear what he taught today!
Off to hopefully a day full of baseball!
