John 2:19 Jesus answered them saying, "Tear down this temple and in three days, I will raise it up again!" Take that!!!! This verse isn't one of the famous ones, many people overlook it, but as I was studying through John with friends and family, this was one we chose to memorize. It stuck. Whenever I doubt the power of God, whenever I think that things are impossible, whenever I doubt that God even knows what exactly is going on, He brings this verse to the front of my mind. It's not a poetic ringer but I just love it, it's like Jesus is saying, "You can run, but you can't hide," from my power, "I will ultimately come out on top," "Do your best but VICTORY IS MINE!" I had such a peace when He told me this was the verse I was to share with you. Not coincidently, it is the eve of my daughter's 16th birthday, He is victorious through her and has used my weakness to remain strong. I love the vision of my Lord as a manly man, I can just hear Him telling those Sanhedrin what for. He loved those parables, and I love Him. Enjoy the verse, I pray it becomes to you what it is to me.
