Which one of you convicts Me of sin? If I speak truth, why do you not believe Me? He who is of God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not hear them, because you are not of God.
John 8: 46-47
It seems as social media and the internet expands, what we can really trust as truth diminishes. However, of this we can be confident: we can believe the truth of who Jesus is and what Jesus says and does. And yet, so often we struggle to trust Jesus – to place our lives, circumstances and consequences solely in his hands. Instead we impatiently take charge to try to make “something” happen – sometimes we are so impatient we will settle for “anything” we can make happen. The closer we get to Palm Sunday our invitation may be to let go, to again trust Jesus’ truth and to join the procession of the followers to Jerusalem who trust and to put our lives in Jesus’ hands.
