HOW TO SURVIVE A BAD DAY (Part 3) Mike Seale
As we continue our Sunday morning series based on Jack Hayford’s
book, How to Live Through a Bad Day, we will discuss another state-
ment Jesus made while hanging on the cross. It is found in the Gospel
of John. “Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister,
Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his
mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he
said to his mother, "Dear woman, here is your son," and to the disciple,
"Here is your mother." From that time on, this disciple took her into his
home” (John 19:25-27).
From this statement we learn a third life-lesson that Jesus taught from
the cross. When you are having a bad day, don’t forget to take care of
those who are close to you.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t tell you how many times I have had
a difficult day at work or a tough time in my life, and I have gone home
and been rude or harsh to those close to me. Why do we do that? Why
do we take our miserable day and hurt those closest to us? Whatever
the reason might be, one thing is for certain, it is in our fallen, human
nature to pass on our pain to those around us.
However, Jesus teaches his followers to respond differently. In his worst
day he remembered those close to him and thought about their future.
To the disciple “whom he loved” and to his mother, he gave the minis-
try and service to care for one another. As mentioned in last week’s
message, Jesus has gone through betrayal, a trial with trumped up
charges and false accusations, a brutal beating all of which consum-
mated in nails been driven through his hands and feet, and he still has
concern for others. This concern was expressed in all three of these first
statements in this series of lessons. To everyone he said, “Father forgive
them, they do not know what they are doing.” To the criminal on the
cross, “Today you will be with me in Paradise.” To his mother and the
disciple whom he loved, “Dear woman, here is your son…son, here is
your mother.” My hope and prayer is that we will receive another en-
couraging life-lesson from Jesus on how to live through a bad day.
Hello to each and every one of you, I hope and pray that all is
going well with you all. Things are going well here. There is much to be
thankful for and each day I find more and more blessings from God. We
have had quite a few visitors drop by as well. My cousin Anslem from
Whiteriver, Arizona, always enjoys worshipping with us. He told one of his
neighbors about what we study and said he was interested in coming
sometime. I visited my cousin Virgil recently and he told me that he
wants to be baptized soon, and my cousin Jr also said the same thing. I
ask for your prayers for them. Virgil lives in Shiprock but his mom lives in
Crownpoint and he comes out almost every weekend. Pray that his wife
Suzy may do so also.
Some of you ask about my mom. She is still going strong. I see her
every day. Michael comes back from college each weekend and stays
at the building. Tamera still has the girls with her and she also continues
to do the correspondence courses. Jared, my grandson, continues to
come and wants to get involved more and more. He works in construc-
tion and wants to do some things around the building.
I ask for your prayers concerning all these matters I know God will
make all things work out for them as we make plans for the summer we
hope and pray that they will be fulfilled if it is His will. Till then, God Bless
and take care, till next time.
