Everything

Judas (not Judas Iscariot, but the otherdisciple with that name) said to him, “Lord, why are you going to revealyourself only to us and not to the world at large?”

            Jesus replied, “All who love me willdo what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our homewith each of them. Anyone who doesn’t love me will not obey me. And remember,my words are not my own. What I am telling you is from the Father who sent me. Iam telling you these things now while I am still with you. But when the Fathersends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teachyou everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.”

Canyou imagine living in that moment? Being one of the chosen twelve disciples? Beingone of the men whom Jesus entrusted with EVERYTHING about His life? And tryingto understand it all.

Wedon’t realize how lucky we are. We have the entire Bible to study and learnfrom. We aren’t living in the moment, two thousand years ago, being told by ourTeacher that bad things were going to happen to Him and then watching this Frienddie on that cross.

Butwe still don't know everything. All we have is the indescribable joy of knowing that He rose from the graveon the third day.
