     | 7,670 views

    Jesus did the will of the Father and finished His work. He knows His purpose in life, set the right priority, and has a passion for the lost. We want to know our purpose, set the priority and develop the passion exemplified by Christ.

    Jesus says, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work.” • Of course, this couldn’t mean that Jesus do not have to eat. • Jesus uses this incident to highlight to His disciples what is important.
