07/12/13 DDD The Character Of Jesus Part 33--Discretion

Today in David's Daily Devotional, we look at Luke 8:52-56. 52 The house was filled with people weeping and wailing, but he said, “Stop the weeping! She isn’t dead; she’s only asleep.” 53 But the crowd laughed at him because they all knew she had died. 54 Then Jesus took her by the hand and said in a loud voice, “My child, get up!” 55 And at that moment her life returned, and she immediately stood up! Then Jesus told them to give her something to eat. 56 Her parents were overwhelmed, but Jesus insisted that they not tell anyone what had happened. David Aldous speaks to us about the discretion of Jesus. Even when we do not know why, there was ALWAYS a reason for everything Jesus did. Other scripture references: Luke 8:46-48
