Jesus lives! Because he lives – so do we! We continue with the vine and branches section of the Gospel of John. We’ll see how he is in us. Our relationship with God is so close he calls us friends. Sometimes we don’t see the love or feel the closeness of God. That isn’t because he’s keeping us at arms length. Our sin and guilt separates us from God. The cure for this isn’t to run away or seek peace in addiction or vice. Go back to Jesus, “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” Jesus gave up his life that we might be alive – that he might be alive in us.
