LUKE 22:63

 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating Him. - Luke 22:63

If I had Your power, I would have used it!  People making fun of me does not go over well.  And You are the Son of God, You created this whole thing.  These little humans, that You created, are mocking You?  And then they start hitting You - like they have some power over You.  Treating You like someone that doesn't matter, when You are the person who matters most in the history of the world.  I bet they thought that they were better than you, more powerful, more worthy.  

I wonder what it was like for the rest of their lives.  Did they ever "get it"?  Did they realize what they were doing, not only to You, but others?  Did You appear to them or did You see them in heaven and be like, "Guess who?"  

I like revenge.  I like to hurt people who hurt me.  I like to see them struggle.  But, that's not You.  So, that should not be me.

GENESIS 13-18, MATTHEW 5-6

​The winter Metra crowd is a lot different!  People plying music without headphones, talking loudly - it’s like the L! I was looking forward...
