John 11.9

Jesus answered [his disciples], "Are there not twelve hours of daylight? Those who walk during the day do not stumble, because they see the light of this world.

This is part of the Gospel reading for this upcoming Sunday, the raising of Lazarus. The disciples are trying to talk Jesus out of going to Judea, due to threats on his life. Jesus is expressing his total trust in God, and is saying his life would end when God willed it. His enemies could not shorten it.

Though we may not face such life and death issues as we walk to Jerusalem, Jesus calls us to the same total trust in God.
