Matthew 16:8-11 ASV

it gets to me how many times Jesus has to say this to his disciples (and by disciples, i mean me, i mean Christians today, and i mean those guys there in the bible) Over and over, don't you remember when i did this, what are you worried about? you're with me, I Am with you. i feel like Jesus is saying this with some conviction in his voice, and yet i feel compassion in his voice too. he wants us to be a part of how he sees the world and he continually gives us opportunities to do so.
