The sense of call that drew Jesus to Jerusalem and into the hands of those he knew would take his life, was fundamental to his identity. The Messiah came to show the love of God to people. Jesus was not naïve about how that love would be received.
An acceptance of where things are headed, can empower us to make the most of our time on the journey. When we know the purpose (the end point), we can make choices and take actions that enhance our effectiveness to our desired end.
To the extent that we do so, we shall not be burdened with regrets. Our lives will tell a true story of our heart’s intent. We shall be to the glory of God… a glory that is truly beyond imagining!
