An EXEMPLARY Example

John 12

Inspired thots

Jesus may be the Son of God but He obeys His Heavenly Father so well. It would be hard to find a son or daughter who does exactly what the parent wants; unless the parent is really good. That would cause the child to WANT to obey. Hmmm... since God the Father is good (Matt 19:17) yet... I am not obedient all the time.

A lacking in relationship would be a major cause; not developing the bond to understand Him and recognizing His voice (John 10) would not compel my heart to obey Him fully. This must be learned and developed. Yes, then the things of this world will grow smaller and less important.
Belief takes more prominence than unbelief unless the heart is still with the world - seeking the favor of man.
