Why?

Why?

The very last question that Jesus asked before His death was, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken me?” (Matthew 27:46, Mark 15:34) Echoing the words of David in Psalm 22, Jesus still had questions on His mind to the very end. Jesus was and is human like you and me. Just as we wonder why certain things happen, so did He—to the very end. You know, one of the hardest parts of life are all those difficult unanswered questions that we never seem to find an answer to. We must remember there will be answers one day in Heaven, but until then, we must do as Jesus did—even to His final breaths—which is to fully obey and continue to pray. Now that’s something to pray about!
