Know Our Nakedness

Mark 14:51-52   
51 Now a certain young man followed Him, having a linen cloth thrown around his naked body. And the young men laid hold of him, 52 and he left the linen cloth and fled from them naked.

This passage could be about Mark or another with a fine linen cloth or robe come to see Jesus, but whoever it was ran away when confronted as the disciples did when Jesus was arrested.  It makes me consider how we have nothing without Him as well.  Our riches and white clothing are in Christ as Revelation says below...

Revelation 3:17-18 17 Because you say, “I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.
