'ஆதவன்' வேதாகமத் தியானம் - எண்:- 1,057 டிசம்பர் 20, 2023 புதன்கிழமை
"Behold,
the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his
own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is
with me." (John 16: 32)
Life in this world is not always full of happiness. Likewise, it cannot be said that all the family relatives and friends who are with us today will always be with us. A period of isolation comes in everyone's life. As Jesus Christ said about himself, we who follow him will also have a period of loneliness. But if we live in Christ our loneliness will not grieve us. The reason is, “yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me." He is with us as Jesus Christ said.
Just as God the Father sent
Jesus Christ into the world, Christ has sent us to live a life of discipleship
in this world. Hence "As thou hast sent me into the world, even so
have I also sent them into the world." (John 17: 18) He said
to the disciples. God the Father did not leave Jesus Christ alone because he
sent him. He says the same thing in today's verse, "Yet I am alone, and
the Father is with me."
Therefore, it is certain
that when Jesus sends us into the world as the Father sent Jesus, He will
always be with us. Therefore, following today's meditation verse, Jesus says, "These
things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye
shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
(John 16: 33)
That is, because the Father
was with him, just as Jesus overcame suffering and overcame the world, we will
also overcome suffering. So, he says, be strong. Jesus was very much pressed in
his last days on this earth. All his disciples left him and fled. He was left
alone. But Jesus was sure that God the Father was with him.
Beloved, we too can have
such a situation when there is suffering in the world. When we live in good
prosperity, we are surrounded by thousands of relations, but when poverty
comes, everyone runs away from us. There may be a situation where we are alone.
But when we live in Christ, as God the Father was with him without abandoning
him, the Lord Jesus Christ will be with us and we will overcome adverse
situations. Yea, beloved, ye have tribulation in the world, but be of good
cheer; I have overcome the world, says the Lord Jesus Christ.
However, if we want to say
that I am not alone, Jesus is with me, we must live a life that suits him. If
we live like that, he will be with us. There is no point in seeking God when we
live according to the world as worldly people and seeking Him only when there
is trouble. When we live in union with Him, He will be with us. Only then can
we say with conviction, "Yet I am not alone, and the Lord Jesus Christ is
with me." You can succeed in life by saying that.
Let us confirm that He is
with us by having a united relationship with Him.
