John 13:7 – Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”
This Bible Verse details the importance of having faith in God and trusting in His timing. Even though we may go through difficult and challenging times, it is important to remain steadfast in our faith. God’s plans are not our plans and His ways are not our ways. His plan and purpose for our lives will become more clear as we meditate on the Word of God and trust in His timing.
Likewise, while Jesus was washing His disciples feet speaking these very words to the Apostle Peter, He made it clear to him, that unless Jesus washes him, he doesn’t really belong to Him. Jesus was explaining the importance of waiting and receiving the Holy Spirit, which was later given to the disciples and believers after He ascended to Heaven.
Today we have the opportunity to wait on the Holy Spirit to give us wisdom, guidance and discernment. Trust that the Lord is with you and for you. Ask for the the Holy Spirit to lead you and to guide you into God’s purpose for your life.
“Ask and you shall receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you.” For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
