Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
La verdad no es algo que sabemos sino algo que vivimos. Jesús nos recuerda que no solo debemos conocer a sus enseñanzas sino también debemos de obedecerlas. Sin embargo, la obediencia es una de las pruebas de ser dicípulos y la puerta a la libertad y verdad.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
At least three times in the Gospel of John, Jesus tells us how we can identify a true disciple of the Lord (John 8:31-32, 13:35, 15:8). This verse is one of those essential verses that tell us who a disciple is. Truth is not just something we know, it is also something we must live. Jesus reminds us that we must not only know his teaching, but obey it, "hold to" it, and live it in our lives. Obedience is one of the proofs of our discipleship and our doorway to freedom and truth. Doing life Jesus' way, holding to his teaching and obeying him, sets us free to live life, and life to the full (John 10:10)!
Mi oración
Padre, perdóname por no tomar a la obediencia a tu voluntad como algo importante. A veces tu camino me parece demasiado restrictivo y dificil. Sin embargo, Padre Amado, muy dentro de mi corazón si creo que tu voluntad es una bendición y no un obstaculo. Utiliceme a ayudar a los demas encontrar el gozo en obedecerte también. En el nombre de Jesús, oro, Amén.
My Prayer...
Father, forgive us for taking obedience to Jesus' will too lightly. Sometimes his way seems restrictive, challenging, and even impossible to us. However, dear Father, deep in our hearts, we genuinely believe that Jesus' will is a blessing and not a hindrance — it sets us free rather than limits us, and something in our souls resonates with his truth. So please, dear Father, use me to help others find joy in obeying Jesus, too. It is in the Lord Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
