—John 5:17-21
by: Victoria Richards.
Jesus made it clear to the Jews that God is still working (v.17); He never stopped. When God rested on the seventh day of creation, He ceased His work of creating. But that did not mean He stopped doing good. In saying this, Jesus was associating Himself with His Father and declaring that He, too, would never stop doing good, especially on the Sabbath. In the same way, let us never ignore the opportunity to do good and to shine the light of Christ to others. Just as Jesus demonstrated His obedience to His Father, may we obey God with our whole heart.
