Thinking about the other day, again I was struck by Jesus’ extreme humility. He called Father to transfer Him from one box to another, knowing that He was going to be kept secret. He waited patiently through confession and anointing until Father was ready to reveal Him to me. I imagine He also waited with excitement and amusement, ’cause He and Father had their little secret.
It also hit me that it was a physical reminder of what Jesus is constantly doing for me and everyone else. He has waited for me so patiently as I wandered away for awhile, getting distracted. He’s always been so happy to have me back. I’m glad that the other day His waiting for me was for a much more positive reason.
