He (Caiaphas) did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation, and not for the nation only, but to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. So from that day on they (Jews) took counsel how to put Him to death. John 11:51-53

Lord we so often see how someone reacts when threatened. You were gaining too much popularity. Now Lazarus is raised from the dead. An amazing event that caused more of the Jews to follow You.

Once again Lord I have to say thank You for Your example.

Thank You for knowing their thoughts and motives.

Thank You for knowing our thoughts and motives too.

Scripture talks about man looking on the outside and You seeing our hearts. Thank You for knowing our motives and desires.

Thank You for Your many gifts.

Thank You Lord.
