What season are you in.

.

Jesus had an incredible journey.

He was born in dramatic circumstances surrounded by heavenly testimonies and worldly violence lived in a remote and often scorned village - grew up in anonymity a carpenters son and apprentice at thirty years of age he struck out in dramatic and prophetic fashion – he walked and preached and God worked miracles through him He shook a nation the world trembled and the evil forces of the day rallied against him – Up to the point of palm Sunday everyone had heard of him and every one had reacted – some in adoration and worship and others in fear and tyranny. Poised on the edge of the pool of suffering Jesus takes a breath and dives in knowing that life as he has known it will never be quite the same again.

Jesus was facing change.
