Provision of Jesus Mark 14:7 · Life For Toledo

• 0:00
  I'm thinking today of a verse in Mark 16, 7.
• 0:05
  And it says, But go your way, tell his disciples
• 0:09
  and Peter that he goes before you into Galilee.
• 0:12
  There shall you see him as he said unto you.
• 0:15
  Here, the young man at the tomb is speaking with
• 0:19
  Mary Mary and Salome. When they have bought spices,
• 0:24
  they come and... deal with the body of Jesus
• 0:27
  in the tomb they find the body is gone and this
• 0:31
  man is there to tell them and you know church
• 0:36
  tradition says and we're pretty sure that he
• 0:38
  was an angel delivering the message and they
• 0:41
  were told that Jesus was alive and would be awaiting
• 0:44
  the disciples and them for that matter in Galilee
• 0:48
  when they got there this was a fulfillment of
• 0:51
  what Jesus had promised in his lifetime and that's
• 0:54
  pretty awesome It was an amazing thing that Jesus
• 0:57
  had come back to life, but it's kind of weird
• 1:00
  that they didn't accept it considering all the
• 1:02
  miracles that he had performed. At the same time,
• 1:05
  we can't accuse them of anything because with
• 1:08
  what Jesus has done in us, we have a lot of doubt,
• 1:12
  a lot of anxiety that maybe we shouldn't have.
• 1:16
  So let's take our cue from the young man at the
• 1:19
  tomb. Don't worry about it. Jesus is there for
• 1:23
  you. Jesus loves you and is working on your behalf
• 1:26
  and he's going to keep all the promises he has
• 1:28
  made. Let us trust Jesus and meet with him, not
• 1:32
  just once, but regularly until that time which
• 1:35
  we go to be with him permanently. Praise God
• 1:38
  that he's arranged that for us.
