Gospel Reflections #388: When the time is right!

Luke 19:40 “Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth. I tell you the truth, if these men would be silent, the stones would cry out."

When Jesus entered Jerusalem, many of His disciples were rejoicing in Him as their Savior, as the King who would deliver them from Roman rule, and were praising God loudly for all the mighty works they had seen.

When the Pharisees in the crowd told Jesus to rebuke the disciples for this, Jesus said these words.

The disciples were pleased with Jesus as their Savior in a different way, but the result was a form of advertising to the world that Jesus was their Savior.

When the time for God's plan comes, His plan will surely move forward, even if there are obstacles and hindrances in the way.

We also cannot help but express our joy when we personally encounter God, commune with Him, touch Him, and taste Him.

Even if our focus on God is a little off, God receives our joy in Him at that point.

We are filled with joy, gratitude, and hope in God's hands, and even our focus on God is adjusted.

Nothing can stop our joy in God.

We are led by God to be bold and to rejoice in Him.

So, let us all share our joy in God with all our hearts.
