The Whole Story: A Life in God's Kingdom, Part Three

DAY 30 OF 31

Daily Reflection: Jesus revisits the fig tree analogy he uses earlier in Mark 11 toward the end of his discourse on the Mount of Olives. This time, the analogy is used as a parable to depict the fall of the temple in Jerusalem. Jesus tells his disciples that this is an event they will witness – and it will certainly be a scary one. Regardless, the end of the analogy is an essential piece of the puzzle. Jesus tells his disciples, “heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.” In other words, his disciples will see things, but never will they see King Jesus and his kingdom fall away. Jesus’ character is confident and firm at the moment. Even in what could feel like the end, his loving-kindness provides a way, yet again.

Daily Demonstration: Have you experienced a time when it felt as though everything was crumbling around you? Maybe it seems like you’re falling apart, your family is in shambles, your friendships are suffering, and even your work is no longer rewarding. It’s okay – everyone faces these seasons. How is one to keep a healthy perspective in such a time? Jesus exemplifies such a strategy in this discourse. Remember, the things of the world will crumble – quite literally someday. But Jesus, however, will never fall away. This is why Jesus is your cornerstone, a firm foundation. How does it change tough situations in your life knowing this truth? How can you share it with others?
