Good Comes

Imagine knowing what the future held.  Imagine knowing that it held the betrayal of someone we loved and trusted.

Jesus knew what was about to take place and He told His disciples so that they wouldn't be completely caught off guard when it happened.  It says in Matthew 17:22-23, "The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men. They will kill Him, and on the third day He will be raised to life." NIV

It certainly wouldn't start out seeming to be good.  All the future seemed to hold was disaster for the Son of Man.  It would include betrayal and ultimately death.  But don't miss the ending, on the third day, life was promised!  This is the Lord in all things.  No matter how dark the clouds may be, because of the Lord, a the silver lining is always promised to those who love Him!
