Confident

I've been reading the gospel of John recently and I've come to a conclusion. For some this might sound like a "Duh!" moment, but for me it really gave me pause to think. Jesus was completely confident in God. He didn't simply have faith, or obey because that was the right thing to do; he was confident in who God was. There was a fully-God part of Jesus that lived and moved on this earth. There was also a fully-man part as well. This part of Jesus' character believed and trusted every word God said to him. When he talked to others about his Father, he did so with pride and confident and certainty. I don't know what to do with this conclusion yet; I'm still processing this and how it applies to my own journey with the Father.
