John 13:18-38 : “Self-Preservation”


Last week we looked at how Jesus gave away everything: Prestige, Power and Position, for the salvation of the world. This week we’ll see how in the very next passages the disciples choose ‘Self-Preservation” over trust and faith in God. The Scriptures call us to ‘lean not on our own understanding’. The journey of trust and faith is a lifelong journey that we grow into as our attempts at self-preservation fail us and our realization of God’s faithfulness begins to sustain us.
