Why do some individuals, often those who have previously expressed doubt or skepticism, turn to Jesus during times of extreme vulnerability? Is it…
Perhaps it’s because, in those moments, people come to realize that Jesus is not just something they need, but everything they need. He becomes all that matters.
It’s a common misconception that God abandons those in difficult circumstances. However, it’s precisely in these moments of vulnerability that people often turn away from false idols or atheism and towards the God of the universe, the one who sent a Savior for all humanity.
Consider the words of Jesus: “Then he (Jesus) asked them, ‘But who do you say I am?’ Peter replied, ‘You are the Messiah’” (Mark 8:29).
If you have a friend or loved one facing catastrophic changes, whether in life or approaching death, could it be that God is calling you to share the same proclamation as Peter? Don’t be discouraged by the possibility of disagreement or rejection. Remember, your influence is limited compared to God’s, and they may have already rejected Him up to this point.
There is nothing more beautiful than witnessing a Sweet Surrender to the Father. Speak to them with love, and allow God to work in their heart.
