Walking with Jesus

As we went Holy Week there is a subtle but important change of pace. This is where we start to walk more closely with Jesus. We recognise how grief, disappointment and opposition can confront us in daily life. But as we see in the prophet Isaiah they do not crush his spirit. Rather he sets his face into the wind and seeks to be who he is called to be.  

In a similar way as walk with him we can discover someone who does not want us to be crushed by our suffering. Rather he seeks for us to be touched by a confidence of knowing how deeply we are loved by God. This is not just a call to buoyant optimism but rather a discovery of how God seeks out the best for us even in our greatest trials.

As we journey through this week may we discover how walking with Jesus we may encounter him more deeply.
