Good morning Pastor John,
I thought about Jesus fixing relationships, and teaching us what he wants in this body. I thought about all His people in Christianity at home right now and how if they only knew what Jesus really wanted and had for them. We are being corrected… they have nothing. I wanted to tell them I have a Pastor who not only knows my first and last name, but also knows my spiritual condition. My pastor knows where I am doing well and where I need help. My anointed pastor knows how and what to teach me from Jesus. My pastor really cares about where I am going to spend eternity. My pastor will seek Jesus for me, to get me home. We have a real relationship.
I wish I could tell some ppl I know that I have a husband who really does things to get me home to Jesus. I have a husband that encourages me, teaches me, guides me and corrects me, and prays for me because he really wants me to make it home to be with Jesus.
I may not always have that blessing; Jesus could take him tomorrow, and if he does, I have a family that loves me and loves Jesus and encourages me when I do well with Jesus, teaches me how to do better if I fail, prays for me because they really want me to make it home to Jesus.
This world will tell you to know who your real friends are; this is what they should have with Jesus, not shallow hellos to strangers for an hour every Sunday. God is a REAL God!
I want them to know. I wish they could know. Thinking of them this morning stirs me and makes me even more thankful for the care I receive here.
Beth
