Jesus didn't just pick an obscure location as his preferred place to live and die. He died for us ...so we can have eternal life, but we may imagine he could have done that anywhere. But, He chose where it seemed to matter most ...and He showed us how to live.

His disciples, mostly apostles, were enlisted ...but didn't quite seem to fully understand the mission.  They were like soldiers, enlisted with Jesus, but somewhat lacking understanding for their commission.  After Jesus was crucified and died ...they got new life with seeing their resurrected Lord, and they received a full commission with the Holy Spirit.

In the Garden of Gethsemane, while Jesus was praying before His crucifixion, an angel came to minister unto Him.  One of the greatest things we can do is minister to one another, to encourage one another, and help guide one another on the right path.

We must keep on the right road!!  We create some nasty curves, but return to the straight and narrow.
