This book completes my series on the Gospels. I have to admit, it has been quite an experience over the past few years. I've found how God communicates with us. He speaks to us through our thoughts. He uses events in our life to teach lessons. I paid attention to how events were arranged to put me in the proper emotional state for the story at hand. I have to admit, I am really going to miss writing about Jesus' ministry recorded in the Gospels. This last book takes a closer look at Jesus' sacrifice and those days leading up to it. John had a way or recording the right details for us to see how God's Spirit worked behind the scenes to prepare the right atmosphere for Jesus to teach what He needed to teach and who He was directed to teach that day. John showed us how Jesus had to wait at times. And yes, how Jesus failed at times. Those details shed a new light on our Savior. A lot of people say, "Jesus lived her in a human body to experience what we do." Of course that's true. But how many people spend nights and days praying, listening, paying attention to details, and waiting for scripture to show us lessons we should be open to learning? Those are lessons designed to show us how to listen to God and deliver messages like Jesus did. Those include lessons showing the emotional ups and downs Jesus experienced and how He coped with them. How can we be effective teachers, pastors, evangelists, or messengers for God if we don't study those details? So Jesus explained, "I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself. He does only what he sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him everything he is doing. In fact, the Father will show him how to do even greater works than healing this man. Then you will truly be astonished. For just as the Father gives life to those he raises from the dead, so the Son gives life to anyone he wants. (John 5:19-21 NLTse).
