Faithful Obedience

John 8:28-29 NIV
28 So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me. 29 The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him.”

It is my belief that Jesus saying "lifted up" he was referring to his crucifixion.  He states that he only does what the father taught him and what pleases him.  Jesus is willing to follow his father all the way to death.

I'm convicted that so often my wants, desires and plans come before God.  How about you?

God Bless.
