THAT'S NOTHING, BOYS
Today's reading: Matthew 23-25

"As Jesus was leaving the Temple grounds, his disciples pointed out to him the various Temple buildings. But he told them, Do you see all these buildings? I assure you, they will be so completely demolished that not one stone will be left on top of another!" Matthew 24:1-2 NLT

The disciples looked around at the majestic architecture and were sure the builders of the time knew what they were doing.

They felt secure within the stone walls.

They rested comfortably in the layout and the engineering of what surrounded them.

Jesus wasn't impressed.

What they saw as masterpieces, He saw as a pile of rubble not able to withstand the hand of God.

I'm wondering if that is not what He sees when we draw His attention to our problems and mountains?

What we see as insurmountable and impossible, He sees as nothing more than tiny heaps of rubble to be swept away by God in His time and in His way.

That's nothing, boys, He might say to us today!
