Lord, help us to accept our own cross, in Jesus' name, Amen.

Suffering in life is inescapable, but our response is a choice. Jesus always acted according to the Father’s will, even when the result would be great pain. The night before His crucifixion, He left us an example of how to respond when God’s will includes more pain than we think we can bear (Matt. 26:36-46). When the dread fell on Jesus in Gethsemane, He went to His Father three times, asking if there was another way to accomplish mankind’s redemption; however, each time He ended His request with these words: “Yet not as I will, but as You will” (v. 39). By the third time, Jesus knew that this was the only way. That’s when the struggle ended, and His resolve to carry out the Father’s will grew strong. I can’t remember how many times I’ve gotten out of bed in the middle of the night, fallen to my knees, and cried out to God. But I do know when the struggle ends—when I finally say, “Lord, I surrender. I want Your desire more than my own.” My circumstances haven’t changed, the pain still remains, but submission to the Lord has given me the strength and confidence to abide under whatever circumstance He’s allowed. We cannot escape pain and adversity, but we can choose how to respond to it. If we become angry or bitter, blame others, try to manipulate our way out of the situation, or resist God, our suffering will be in vain. But the Lord wants us to trust Him in the midst of our anguish. When we yield to His will, knowing that He is using it to achieve something great in our lives, He will give us the grace to endure and grow in Christlikeness.

Lord, help us value the company of friends ...

We had been married about a year and decided to lead a small group for our church. I was looking forward to meeting other young professional couples in the area—successful people with whom we could network. By the end of the first night, we discovered many of attendees were dealing with major life issues. One woman suffered various painful ailments; another had constant anxiety and struggled with social interactions; one guy couldn’t find stable employment. Not exactly the new company I had hoped to make. Yet over the following months, we found moments of laughter, prayed for the pressing needs, and most importantly, we got to know one another on a deeper level. I began to see how foolish it was to expect a certain “type” of person should form this new community—especially when the architecture firm where my wife worked closed its doors. Now we faced our own personal crisis, and our small group community rallied around us. It reminded me of how Dr. Stanley described Jesus’ own “small group”—the twelve disciples: “They were rough, though ready to meet the challenge with enthusiasm. They were not perfect, but they were open to growing and learning God’s ways.” I faced a moment where I realized my life wasn’t nearly as “put-together” as those imaginary people I first wanted to fill our group. Thankfully, God sent us the friends we needed, not the ones I wanted. Each of them had something unique to give the rest of us, and I can only hope we offered something in return.
