He will be handed over to the Gentiles. He will be ridiculed, mistreated, and spit on. After torturing him, they will kill him. On the third day, he will rise up.” But the Twelve understood none of these words. The meaning of this message was hidden from them and they didn’t grasp what he was saying. ~ Luke 18:32-34 (CEB)
Savior God, for your own reasons you keep some things hidden from us. It must be better that way. Sometimes I have a hard time accepting that you don't tell me everything I want to know. That's not just because I am curious. But I tend to think I am more important than I am. Help me to accept that you are busy keeping the world running even with my limited knowledge. Please help me to focus more on what you have revealed. Resurrection and new life is more than enough good news to keep me occupied. Amen.
