This scripture tells me how Jesus,in a loving manner, was able to help us all, by reading this, come to terms not only with His existence, but with His resurrection and our place in the kingdom of God.

For some reason, I always saw Jesus' life occurring as a random series of events, but in this gospel, he's "the Man with a Mission"! Clearly, he had specific objectives to accomplish and was actively working towards them. Throughout the gospel, he's so earnest . . like he's racing the clock. When Jesus would say "Do you still not understand this?", I used to think he was getting impatient, but now I understand that he was trying to make sure the apostles were prepared when it was time for him to leave. Again, the sense of urgency is plain to see. The mystery of the Trinity was clearly played out as well. He was clearly distinct from the Father, yet there was no separation. It's not easy to explain, but it was plain to see! I was overwhelmed by John’s Gospel to the point of feeling like I was reading it for the first time.
