If you want to see what God is like, look to Jesus

Morning: Psalms 85, 87; Exodus 3:1-12; Hebrews 11:23-31
Evening: Psalm 89:1-29; John 14:6-14

Jesus invites us to put faith in him and bracket our skepticism.  By “the Father”, presumably he means God. Jesus also claims to be “in the Father” and the Father in him.  He is so close to God that he and the Father are one. Why does Jesus call God ‘Father’?  It does make it easier for us to comprehend this mystery … Jesus’s bottom line seems to be: ‘If you want to know what God is like, pay attention to me.’
