1After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: "Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.

2For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. - P22

3Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. - P22

 Jesus declares thateternal life is knowing God and Jesus Christ.  - P23

Jesus has completed the workgiven to Him and revealed the Father to His disciples, who have accepted Hiswords and believed that He was sent by God. - P23

He always acts for His glory first and foremost, and because of His perfect character, His glory works for our good. When a God who is always and only good, who knows no darkness at all, and is all wise and sovereign—when such a God acts for His glory, all who belong to Him benefit. - P24

Do you believe that you benefit when God acts for His glory? Ask God to give you a better understanding of how His glory works for your good. - P24

To put it another way, knowing the name of the Father as revealedy the Son is the means for the saints to be saved. This is the mission thatesus came to accomplish, and it was ultimately completed on the cross. - P24

When His name is made known,
the result is nothing short of eternal life. - P24

may pray with gladness the prayer You taught us: Hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done—in my heart, in this life, as it is in heaven. In Jesus’ name, amen. - P24

말로만 사랑을 고백하지 말고 모든 행위로 고백하라는 뜻입니다." 주님을 사랑한다는 고백은 삶을 통해 모두에게 증명되어야 하는 무게가 동반됩니다. 우리가 주님을 향해 사랑을 고백할 때면 우리의 삶을 함께 드리는 것입니다.
한줄노트 진정한 사랑은 큰소리치는 ‘선언‘이 아니라, 전 인격적인 삶을 통한 ‘고백‘입니다. - P79

주님의질문은 우리를 사명으로 이끄시는 필연적인 과정입니다. ‘아픈 만큼 성숙해진다‘
는 말은 신앙에 있어서도 변하지 않는 진리입니다. - P80

주님의 질문기 아프게 우리 삶에 파고들 때, 진정한 회개의 열매와 깊은 소명이 찾아옵니다.
하나님께서 우리를 찾아와 주시는 아픔은 큰 선물입니다. 우리는 주님의 뼈아픈질문을 통해 주님을 깊이 사랑하는 자신을 깨닫게 됩니다. 그리스도인으로 철이든 우리는 "주여 주께서 모든 것을 아십니다"라고 고백할 것입니다. - P80

사람들은 다 아직은 자신이 남과 나눌만한 형편이 못 된다고 한다. 조금만 더 풍족해지면, 조금만 더 성공하고 나면 나누겠다고 한다. 그러나 지금있는 작은 것부터 나누지 못하면, 나중에 큰 것도 나누지 못한다. 다윗은광야의 도망자 신세이면서도 자신의 동족들과 있는 것을 나누는 하나님의 사람이었다. - P138

어쩌면 우리의 우물에서 더 이상 샘물이 나오지 않는 것은 우리의 인색함때문인지도 모른다. 얼마나 많이 가졌는가를 생각하지 말고 얼마나 많이나누었는가를 생각해보라. 그 기준으로 지금껏 살아온 인생을 반성해보라.
아무리 힘들고 어려운 환경에 있다 해도, 결심하고 기도하며 하나님의 흘려보내는 손이 되어 보라. 그러면 하나님께서 우리의 곳간을 마르지 않게 채우실 것이다.
우리도 다윗처럼 내게로부터 눈을 돌려 하나님을 보기 시작하자. 그렇게하면, 비록 지금 광야에 있어도 우리는 놀라운 주의 역사를 경험할 것이다. - P139

31"Do you now believe?" Jesus replied.

32"A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me. - P143

33"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." - P143

 He encourages them to take heart in the face of upcomingtrials, assuring them of His victory. - P143

Jesus explains that He came from the Father and is about to return to Him, and the disciples will also have fellowship with the Father, being able to ask Him directly in Jesus’ name. - P144

We have the security of knowing that the Father loves and hears us just as He loves and hears His Son. - P144

we face different kinds of troubles. However, we can have peace and take heart in remembering the victory of Christ - P144

This earthly ministry. Their relationship with the Father, Son, and HolySpirit becomes their solid foundation for joy and peace amid the troublesof this world. - P145

Our peace is anchored inour union with Jesus Christ, who has triumphed over sin and death. Thegreatest challenge humanity faces is the suffering caused by sin and death,
which robs us of joy and peace. However, when we build our foundationon Jesus, who has already attained perfect joy and peace, we resemble thewise man who builds his house on the rock.  - P145

No matter what troubles weencounter, we will not fall because our foundation is solid in Christ. - P145

Dear God, thank you that You love me and hear all my prayers. In times of struggle, remind me of the victory of Christ, so that I may persevere as I experience Your unwavering peace. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen. - P145
