Jesus: Matthew 21:17 by ric gustafson
According to Matthew 21:17, then he returned to Bethany where he stayed overnight. Jesus knew how to rest. He stayed overnight with his friends in Bethany. There were days of intense public pressure in Jerusalem. Jesus found fellowship in Bethany. Jesus had to balance stress with quietness and friendship.
Jesus wants us to take time to rest. Doing God's work will make us tired. According to Mark 2, God has ordered us to rest. It is for our benefit. Discipleship can be tiring. Jesus wants us to rest so we can serve him. Jesus loves us more than anything else.
