John 13:11 | DiscipleDeck

Bible Commentary

John 13:11

Jesus knew Judas's heart — and He still served him. He still washed his feet. This is a picture of God's patience with people who have not yet turned to Him.

Memory phrase: Jesus knows our hearts.

Talk about it: Does it feel different knowing Jesus knows everything about us?

Prayer: Lord Jesus, You know my heart. Keep it pure and true to You.
