Jn 14-17 is unlike the other Gospel writers. John has a long Last Supper discourse, while Mt, Mk, and Lk go from the Last Supper straight to the garden. So I asked: Why did John think these words so important, that he stuck them in the midst of the most important part of Jesus' life?<br /><br />The lesson I learned is one repeated three times in those chapters: "Love one another". I guess John thought that important to note; I guess Jesus did also. And now I do also.<br /><br />If you wish to read a wonderful, simple, beautiful book on this commandment being lived out, pick up Kisses From Katie, about Katie Davis from Tennessee, now 22, living with her 14 adopted children in Uganda. She exhibits love ala Mother Teresa.Do Not Be Anxioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04607616214486933423noreply@blogger.com
