John 14:1 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me.” Can you state any reason to worry knowing your Jesus is always walking by your side? State just one reason. There is not even one legitimate reason any of has. Each of us is surrounded in the arms of our Jesus. You and I have no reason to worry—that is the simple truth. We all have the unique honor of living worry free lives simply because of our relationship with our Savior. Never let anything spoil that relationship.

John 13:34-35″A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know you are my disciples, if you love one another.” Love at times is difficult. Our human nature enters our minds and our defense mentality is just the opposite of love. As children of our Heavenly Father, as disciples of our Savior and as representatives of our God we are bound to love one another. We all cherish the thought of being loved by our God. It is your and my responsibility to learn from and to follow His example.

John 12:46 “I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should walk in darkness.” How much simpler could Jesus express truth? If you want light–if you want truth–if you want security–if you want peace–if you want true love–believe in me and perpetually have light. What a wonderful Savior you and I worship and enjoy!

John 12:42-43 ” Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him. But because of the Pharisees they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue; for they loved human praise more than praise from God.” Without me writing anything I am sure you see the problem–the last phrase. That phrase is a human nature flaw. Being politically correct is a human weakness which often keeps truth from being exposed. The absolute truth of Scripture should never be compromised. You and I have the responsibility of telling any and every one the truth as God has told us His truth. Only then will we hear our Father say as we enter Heaven—Well done! Human praise is very temporary and changes in an instant. God praise is constant and eternal. Have a great weekend.

John 12:37 “Even after Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him.” One would think it is impossible to not believe in God as He presents Himself throughout Scripture. Miracle after miracle, the magnificence of creation, the ultra nano scientific realizations, the massive differences created by words within 6 days, the peace, comfort and happiness enjoyed because of faith—-all are undeniable proofs of our God, yet some choose to ignore what is so obvious. How can the obvious be so not obvious? That is a real brain teaser, shrug your shoulders, shake your head, unbelievable to be answered— question.
