A Daily Devotion for Tuesday, October 5

John 17:1-3

After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed:

”Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.”

Jesus reassures us with this prayer to God. We know that by accepting and knowing Christ we will be forever with the triune God. This is eternity: that we may know Him. Whatever this is like, it is what God has prepared for those who love Him. I can trust God with this, but I can’t help having so many questions!

Father God, I know you have a place for me, near you. I am thankful. I am full of questions, but this does not alter my trust in you. I am yours. Amen
