Jesus said to him, friend, for what are you here? Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and arrested Him. And behold, one of those who were with Jesus reached out his hand and drew is sword and, striking the body servant of the high priest, cut off his ear.
Then Jesus said to him, Put your sword back into its place, For all who draw the sword will die by the sword.
Do you suppose that I cannot appeal to my Father and He will immediately provide me with more than twelve legions (more than 80,000 angels)?
But how then would the scriptures be fulfilled, that it must come about this way?
Matthew 26:50-54, amplified version
***************
Many of us attempt to fulfill our own prophesies. No matter what. No matter who gets hurt. We decide this is how it will be because it is how we see ourselves.
I've experienced this much in my life. I've seen people do it to themselves. "Cut off their nose to spite their face" if you prefer.
Life is too short. Things will come to pass, yes. But why? Why attempt to make things as they are not, only to satisfy your own view of what and who you think you are?
Does no one believe in miracles anymore?
No one?
I know it makes you crazy when I talk about God. But, what if I wasn't?
What if I was just talking about Real Life?
What if I was asking you not to throw it all away because I am human, just like you?
