Ever thought why Jesus entrusted His mother Mary to John and not to anyone else of his 12 disciples??? Was it because he didn't trust the other guys enough! Think again....
The answer is pretty much there... (or rather Not there!) 'Coz there were None of the other 12 there at that time but John! Now there might be theological or more un-funny answers to this, but the fact also remains that the rest of them ran away.... no one else stood by the Lord when He most needed them. It was only John who remained and well, Jesus looked down and around the cross to see to whom he might entrust his mother and he saw only John...
There is much to learn of John's love and loyalty to the Master from this.
Will I stand by the Lord or like the rest, run, when it counts the most?
