The Day That Jesus Left His Friends

Carter Conlon

Have you ever gone into an intense trial and reached out for support and fellowship only to find that those who were closest to you have fallen asleep when you needed them most? The Bible says cursed is he who leans on the arm of flesh, mankind will always fail us. There are times of maturity when God calls each son and each daughter in His kingdom to go into their own personal Gethsemane and nobody else can understand or help you. There is a place where flesh won’t do and only the strength of God can take you through. There is a point when God calls us to something beyond what any friend could give us. When we come out of this trial we won’t be looking for strength from others but we will return with strength for them. Nobody but God can take you through, and nobody but God can give you the strength and the power that you need.
