Holy impatience

Luke 12:50 (Berean Study Bible)

But I have a baptism to undergo and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!

The baptism that the Lord Jesus was referring to was His crucifixion. Not only was Christ eager to die on the cross but impatient! Are we that passionate and impatient about His work? Churches and ministers are impatient about expanding their congregations. They should be more impatient about saving & shepherding souls, and hastening the return of Christ.
