Surrendering Myself to My Father, I Seek the Will of the One Who Made Me!

Jesus answered the Jews:

"My Father is at work until now, so I am at work."

For this reason they tried all the more to kill him,

because he not only broke the sabbath

but he also called God his own father, making himself equal to God.

Jesus answered and said to them,

"Amen, amen, I say to you, the Son cannot do anything on his own,

but only what he sees the Father doing;

for what he does, the Son will do also.

For the Father loves the Son

and shows him everything that he himself does,

and he will show him greater works than these,

so that you may be amazed.

For just as the Father raises the dead and gives life,

so also does the Son give life to whomever he wishes.

Nor does the Father judge anyone,

but he has given all judgment to the Son,

so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father.

Whoever does not honor the Son

does not honor the Father who sent him.

Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever hears my word

and believes in the one who sent me

has eternal life and will not come to condemnation,

but has passed from death to life.

Amen, amen, I say to you, the hour is coming and is now here

when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God,

and those who hear will live.

For just as the Father has life in himself,

so also he gave to the Son the possession of life in himself.

And he gave him power to exercise judgment,

because he is the Son of Man.

Do not be amazed at this,

because the hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs

will hear his voice and will come out,

those who have done good deeds

to the resurrection of life,

but those who have done wicked deeds

to the resurrection of condemnation.

"I cannot do anything on my own;

I judge as I hear, and my judgment is just,

because I do not seek my own will

but the will of the one who sent me."

~John 5:17-30

Jesus gives us eternal life, to those who believe! I surrender myself to Him! He is my example I strive to be like, He is the example that God gave us to follow and who can save us. He is our Savior! God is my Father! No priest or human father is like God, He is our true Father! We need to learn to let Him lead us, guide us, and instruct us, to accept His will be done always. He is all that matters. We need to remember our God in Heaven, when He is on our side, we will never lose. He fights all our battles and looks out for us. We never need to worry, when we put our trust in Him. Jesus fulfilled the entire Hebrew Bible, the Torah. He is the promise from God talked about so much in Isaiah. Jesus is knocking at our hearts. He wants us to know Him. He wants to save us and bring us to His Father in Heaven to spend eternity with Him. What a blessing and what a wonderful Father we serve in how He gave us Jesus!
