Selfless Faith

In the John 8:14, Jesus says to the Pharisees “Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going.”

I am at peace because Jesus has comforted my spirit and soul. He assuredly told us He knows exactly where He came from, and exactly where He is going. Now He asks us to follow Him which means if we follow Him, He will lead us to the same place He resides. Jesus, the Christ, provides us with perfect completion for our lives. Before we came to know and truly trust in Christ, our lives were some type of crazy movie with alternate endings, but we all died in the end. Once we came to Christ, He told us exactly where we are going, and were are no longer anxious. Our souls are calm because we have that certainty. There is no other person who has been able to tell their followers where they are going because they did not know where they came from or where they were going themselves. That feeling of uncertainty definitely leaves their followers in fear their entire life. However, Christ completes our hope because He IS our salvation and our redeemer. In Christ, the Kingdom of God is no longer a hope, but a promise. God always keeps His promises, so most assuredly, we know where we are going. My spirit and soul rests in that certainty.

If you are yet to find that certainty, or you are in search for perfect completion in your life, please don’t hesitate to email us at faithfulservant@selflessfaith.com.

John 21:20 from the Amplified Bible reads “Jesus said to him, If I want him to stay (survive, live) until I come, what is that to you? [What concern is it of yours?] You follow Me!”

We must always be in the state of mind of letting Jesus lead our lives without questioning His will. We worry desperately about how our brothers and sisters chose to serve God and that can easily put a road block in our path. Jesus has commanded that we follow Him and follow the path He has set for us. We must not concern or question God on the ways He uses His other servants to satisfy His will. We all have been blessed with gifts through the Holy Spirit, and no gift is better than the other, and all are equally important. As long as our brothers and sisters are possessed by the Holy Spirit, we shall worship, pray, study, and rejoice in the presence of the Lord together. Let Him lead us as we follow Him.
