john 13: 31-35

John 13:31-35

New International Version (NIV)

Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial

 ³¹ When he was gone, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified and God is glorified in him. ³² If God is glorified in him,^[a] God will glorify the Son in himself, and will glorify him at once.
   ³³ “My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.

   ³⁴ “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. ³⁵ By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

John 19: 25 - 27 (Visual Prayer)

John 19:25-27

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

²⁵ Therefore the soldiers did these things.
   But standing by the cross of Jesus were His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.


²⁶ When Jesus then saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He *said to His mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”


²⁷ Then He *said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour the disciple took her into his own household.



The Photo tells me.

1. Great sadness from Mary, seeing her Son dying on the cross.

2. Great sadness from Magdalene, seeing her Savior dying on the cross.

3. Great sadness from the disciple, seeing his Teacher dying on the cross.

4. And Jesus dying on the cross, still thinks that Mary will be taken cared of very well by His student. Jesus so caring, so concern, nurturer, so selfless, even the last minutes of his breath still thinks about others.


Dear LORD,

Bless, Praise, Glory, Honor and Thanks for the gift of being a humble nurturer. Pray that I may still think of others concerns ahead of mine, even in time of trials and challenges. For these will make my own suffering very light.

Be a humble nurturer to all my fellow travelers, friends, ecotour providers, and Feast Alabang fellow servants.

All I ask in the name of Your Son Jesus Christ. Amen
