Untouchable

• John 7:30 (ASV)

---

30 Then the leaders tried to arrest him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his time (hour) had not yet come.

20...But he was not arrested, because his times had not yet come.

The idea the Jesus was "untouchable" until his "hour" had arrived is really cool. He was smack dab in the middle of where he was supposed to be and because of that had God's divine protection to do exactly what he needed to do. That same confidence can be ours: when we stay put in God's will (which we further discern by quietly doing what we already know to be right!) we can be confident that anything that happens to us will work out for the the accomplishing of God's plan - even difficult, tragic and painful circumstances.
