“They led Jesus away to the high priest; and all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes gathered together.  Peter had followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest; and he was sitting with the officers and warming himself at the fire” (Mark 14:53-54).

We all have curiosity, especially when experiencing events that are out of the ordinary.  We each have thoughts running through our minds and wonder what is going to happen.  When the wicked plot and scheme, we are not sure what the outcome will be.  Rest upon what You have been given and trust that the Savior of all will work all things together according to the Father’s perfect purpose.

Lord, I often wander in this world wondering what You would have me do.  Guide me into a life that seeks what is right and fitting for each circumstance in which You have placed me.  Lead me to see that in You alone is there hope and a future.  Guide me according to Your purpose to hold fast to what is right.  Keep my mind in check by bringing Your word to remembrance in all circumstances.

Thank You Lord Jesus for being vulnerable and showing me human weakness.  Help me to be humble, admit my faults, and bow in the grace You give me.  Guide me according to the Father’s purposes so that I may, now and always, live according to the word You have given me.  When confronted with overwhelming curiosity, bring to my mind Scripture, Psalms, and praise so that I may focus upon You and the grace You give.  Amen.
