Like sheep without a shepherd
There were a few times when Jesus was angry or deeply troubled. He was furious when the money changers occupied the temple. He mourned when he looked over an unrepentant Jerusalem. He was angry and wept when Martha and Mary struggled to believe (Joh 11:33). What frustrated Jesus the most was our faithlessness. He often lamented over our failure to grasp who he is. The “human condition,” fallen far short of our potential, moved him to anger and tears. Does your “human condition” frustrate you? Are you heartbroken, as Jesus was, over the faithless masses? Does this “holy discontent” lead you to action?
