Faithful and True

And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book;
But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. John 20:30,31

The gospel of John is an eye witness's testimony of what he saw and heard. As with any testimony there is much that can be said but there are the facts that show the picture.

John was showing the heart of Christ and he did this well as he himself was a heart man.

I have a cousin who is a heart man, his name is David or Dave as we know him.
Last week I saw him for the first time since I was 16, a long time. Dave is still a heart man and for that I am truly grateful.

John wrote three epistles and the Book of Revelation. I could imagine Dave doing that. He is a faithful, true man who also happens to be a teacher.

I am testifying about a cousin and yet my testimony about my Lord is about a faithful, true Lord whose love goes beyond all that men can muster.
I am grateful for how my God crafts individuals and how plants a part of Himself in each. God is so good!

Yesterday I met with a nephew and his family and he is also a faithful, loving man. I am so grateful to my God who has blessed me with such a family.

Lord, thank You for John the apostle, thank You for choosing such a man. Thank You for the men in my family, may there eyes be opened to Your glorious plan for their lives. Amen!
