John 15: 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
Jesus is talking with his disciples. Earlier he washed their feet and talked about being a servant. Now he raises the level of discourse. They have learned all that he had to teach them before giving his life for them.
How sad. He has given them everything he intended to teach them, and his time on this Earth is nearly over. He is speaking his final words, with the full knowledge of how his death will affect him and his followers. I'm so sad for Jesus.
Prayer: Lord, we are unworthy of all You and Your son have endured from us. I'm guilty of many sins, and I am sorry for all the grief that I have caused. I'm blessed to have Your forgiveness. Thanks be to God.
Amen
