No one goes through this life unscathed. Given time you will face things that will rock your world. So what can you do when your world is crashing down around you? First you can ask for help. That’s what Jesus did. “He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him…Then he said to them, ‘My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.’” (Mt. 26:37-38). There was nothing they could do to change the situation; still Jesus wanted them with Him. He knew their nearness and their prayers would sustain Him in a way nothing else could.
“Two are better than one…
— Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 (NIV 1984)
If one falls down,
his friend can help him up.”
Jesus, help us to humble ourselves and ask for help when our world is falling apart. Amen.
