So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this Man’s (Jesus) blood; see to it yourselves.” Matthew 27:24
Lord, Pilate was a good man. He couldn’t do what the crowd wanted him to do with a clear conscience. He washed his hands and stepped away. What guts that took Lord. Amazing man really.
Thank You for those that are strong like Pilate today that stand up for You.
Thank You for giving each one of us that same strength and power You gave Pilate.
Oh how we thank You. Oh how we need You. You are ALWAYS there when we call and we thank You.
Thank You Lord.
