My "walking with Jesus" friend, please, let me ask you a question: Is it helpful to us when a friend tells us in advance what is going to go on/ what is going to happen? I think it is. We can prepare ourselves. In Matthew 16:21, we read:" Jesus began to show his disciples how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things at the hands of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be put to death, and be raised the third day." How would you and I feel to hear Jesus say all that? Well, Jesus' disciple Peter got all upset. He took Jesus aside and told him not to let those things happen! What was Jesus' reaction to Peter? Jesus sharply scolded Peter!! Jesus even said to Peter:" Get you behind me, Satan: you have offended me, Peter, you are not looking at what God is doing, instead, you are concerned about what men are doing." Jesus was telling Peter: I am following the mighty
plan GOD has for Me. You are wrong, Peter, to tell me not to do what God has directed. Peter, "All things work together for GOOD, to those who love the Lord and are the called according to His purposes."( Romans 8:28)
