Knew Who He Was
Scripture:
1 Before the Passover festival began, Jesus was keenly aware that His hour had come to depart from this world and to return to the Father. From beginning to end, Jesus’ days were marked by His love for His people. 2 Before Jesus and His disciples gathered for dinner, the adversary filled Judas Iscariot’s heart with plans of deceit and betrayal. 3 Jesus, knowing that He had come from God and was going away to God, 4 stood up from dinner and removed His outer garments. He then wrapped Himself in a towel, 5 poured water in a basin, and began to wash the feet of the disciples, drying them with His towel. (John 13:1-5 The Voice)
Jesus was confident in Who He was, and what He had been sent to do, so He did not struggle with serving His disciples in the simple act of washing their feet. I believe that I as understand more and more who I am and what my purpose is, the less I will need to prove myself to others or struggle for attention or position.
Lord, knowing who I am as Your child, and what Your purpose for me is, is important in helping me to live a life of grace and confidence. Please continue to help me with this. AMEN
Father God, I will confidently trust You to care for me. As I am confident in You, I can face any foes triumphantly. Thank You. Psalm 112
