Short Stories
The night was quiet just like any other, yet what happened tonight would determine the fate of mankind forever. The full moon shone down on the figure of a man. His body lay prostrate against a rock as if some unseen force was pressing him against it. His face showed agony and heartache as he struggled to stay on his knees. For the first time in His life He was separated from His father by the sins of thousands. This innocent and perfect Man knew how it felt to be a murder and a rapist; even though He had never committed any crime. Blood dripped down his brow like sweat from His suffering. Yet He carried on fueled by compassion for a race that had rejected him. So dark was the gap that separated Him from His Father that He could no longer see past the grave. From pale shaking lips our savior uttered this prayer, “ O Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. He knew that He would be beaten, cursed, and hung on a cross between heaven and earth to die. Yet He went to face His accusers compelled by love….

As a mother of all His born-again children, Lord Jesus taught us how we should pray and worship the Father through all tribulations, pain and suffering. He is the FIRST and the LAST. He set the First example for us to endure tribulation and pain. He taught us how to stay awake with Lord the Holy Spirit and pray hard (blood drips like sweat) unceasingly for everything that we need in our lives and not to give up on Him. A new born child learns everything from the mother and follows the example of the mother in this world. The heavenly Mother, Father and teacher (all in ONE) Lord Jesus Christ came to earth to suffer the birth pain on the cross AND prayed through His birth pain until He gave His life so that His children can be born-again. As high as the heaven from the earth, Heavenly mother’s love is higher than earthly mother’s love. He endured His birth pain when people spat on His face, beat him with fists and slapped Him. He was humble as heavenly mother waiting for His children to be born-again. There is no dark gap between the Father and the Son. The Father is in the Son and the Son is in the Father. (I am a God who is near, says the Lord. I am also a God who is far away-Jeremiah 23:23). God who is near is LORD JESUS CHRIST, the Son of Man, God the Son, the Word of God. God who is far away is God of Abraham, God of Isaac and God of Jacob, one and only God the Father. God Bless!
