Evening: Psalm 69:1-23; John 12:9-19
“Why
do the treacherous thrive?” Many reject God because bad things happen.
But it’s too simplistic to think God should stop evil in its tracks.
Human beings must be involved. We are caught up in it; why should God
rescue us from every bad situation? Better to know God is with us in
our perennial struggle with evil and the power of death. Jesus showed
this was true when he raised Lazarus. That’s why they welcomed him into
Jerusalem with shouts of praise. They had begun to hope that Jesus
would help them deal decisively with evil. He did.
