Blog of Diana Yarde Because they didthe understand when Jesus said I and my Father are one. He is the great I AM. Jesus was talked about long before He came into existance. He saw the world for the first time because he was born blind and that would allow him to trust God, to obey Him as he did when Jesus send him to wash in the pool and to worship and praise God. God's work was displayed in the blind man through his desire to see and his willingness to obey. He did as Jesus told him and was able to testify to the fact that it was Jesus who caused him to see. What joy that must have been since he never saw his mother's face or anyone around him. God is an awesome God. The Pharisees thought everything Jesus did was wrong because their worship with their mouth and not their hearts. Jesus said that the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath, therefore if someone is hurt, you should help that person despite of which day it is. Also Jesus wanted to show them that He is the God of the Sabbath and He does what His Father sent Him to do. To have God as my father is to be humble, to be loved, to sit on the Throne at His side. With God as my Father i will not be afraid because He will always be there as my protector. I will be free from sin and will be washed in His blood. With God as my Father I am saved, sanctified, blessed, forgiven and a child of God and not of the devil. It is great to have God in your life, embrace Him. You can abide in the word by studying, trusting, constant praying, exercising your faith and obeying. The Bible says faith without works is dead, so is not enough to have faith but to use it and believe in the Word of God. |
