Matthew 17:1-13
Nothing compares to Jesus' glory. Moses with the Law and Elijah with the power disappear before Jesus. When Jesus is with us, there is nothing we need more. But Jesus asked them not to tell others this glory. Because Jesus' priority is the cross. He wanted to hide all his glory before the cross. I hope to hide all things before the cross(obedience to God's will) appears in my life. The cross must prevail against my own will.
Matthew 17:14-20
Although Jesus' disciples had seen what Jesus did, they were blamed as "unbelieving and perverse generation". We are weak like them. Nevertheless, the small seed of faith that Jesus planted will be growing and completed to move a mountain because Jesus is looking after us. I am hiding me behind the cross today likewise.
Matthew 17:22-27
Jesus came here to die for us. Therefore, he did not assert his right. All his lifetime was for people's sakes, not himself. Then, how shall his disciples live? We must live for others as we enjoy our precious life, too. As we respect our own rights, our life should be helpful for others. What profit am I giving people around me?
