A Chinese Philosopher who lived before the time of Jesus once said
" Nothing lasts forever- everything changes" How true it is- especialy in
the area of friendships and relationships. Our Lord Jesus welcomed sinners and religious people alike, at times the crowds mobbed Him.But He was inwardly detached from everyone. At the crucial moment when everyone deserted Him- He was still calm and serene. He expected it.So He was not devastated when the disciples ran for their lives.Silently firm- He faced a new situation.No more supper times and supper stories. Suddenly the lonely road to the cross loomed before Him.That sense of betrayal- it must have been awful.He faced it calmly and firmly. So must you. May God give you grace to handle those who abuse your friendship and trust . Vijay
