John 17
It never fails to impress me how Jesus is able to sum things up so succinctly. He speaks is parables and sometimes cryptic vagueries. But when He wants to, He can lay it all on the table. In John 17:3, Jesus sums up what everyone has been striving for all. Eternal life is to know God and the one He sent. All the emphasis on doing this and not doing that, of making sure to follow the rules, it isn't the point. It kinda makes sense. Jesus seemed to spend a lot of time building relationships with His disciples, probably as much as He did teaching. These moments of clarity are the ones I seem to hold on to the tightest because they help the rest of it all make sense.
