RIDICULE

Matthew 9:24

He said to them, “Make room, for the girl is not dead, but sleeping.” And they ridiculed Him.

Personal challenge

What makes us think that if we proclaim Jesus as our Lord that everything and everyone will be well with us. Even Jesus, after performing many miracles, was ridiculed and mocked. If we are following in His steps, should we not also expect to be ridiculed and mocked. The way of Jesus very contradictory to the way of the world. This contradiction leads to conflict for there is a constant spiritual battle in flight. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
