“Then, raising his eyes in prayer, Jesus said: … I glorified you on earth by completing down to the last detail what you assigned me to do.” ~Jesus | Source: John 17:1-5 (The Message)
Jesus was on a mission. Jesus had as his focus only doing what God, His Father, wanted him to do. God is God and has a plan all laid out for me. My mission is to do what Jesus has in mind for me. That is how I glorify God.
Jesus was obsessed with the details of God’s plan. Jesus checked them off one by one. Nothing was overlooked. Not a single solitary detail was missed. All the law and the prophecy was accomplished.
Jesus challenges me to have the same obsession. God has given me an assignment. I must focus on completing the job day by day. I know that many times a day I miss God’s goal for me. Jesus gives me the strength, through His Holy Spirit, to get up and live in His victory.

Κύριε Ἰησοῦ Χριστέ, Υἱέ τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἐλέησόν με τὸν ἁμαρτωλόν
Excellent. An obsession with God’s desire for us is precicely what we need.
