“Jesus answered them, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.””
Have you ever had a chair break a leg? Have you ever tried to stand on one leg for 40 days? How about one full day? An hour? Five minutes?
Jesus announces for one and for all, the hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified, for us to humble ourselves except in the glory of God, for us to know what we can stand on and what will stand up. The days of standing on one leg, of trying to support ourselves or glorify ourselves in anything but God's grace alone have come to an end.
What do you base your faith on? How solid is your faith? Where do you find glory? Can you stand on your faith for 40 days, two more weeks, a day, an hour, five minutes? An eternity? Who do you glorify, in your life, heart, church, this hour? Trust and worship and believe; for the hour has come, God in the grace alone of Jesus Christ is glorified, and has glorified you for salvation's sake!
Let us pray: Jesus, today I confess I often prefer to glorify myself. By your Spirit, I see I cannot stand on that one leg very long, certainly not these last two weeks of Lent, certainly not for a lifetime, certainly not for eternity. In this very hour, all my days, by your grace in Christ alone, I will glorify you in my life, heart and church. In your name I am glorified, I am at one with you, as I pray. Amen.
