A long time ago on dusty road leading away from Nazareth a man named Jesus walked into history, became history. Deep in his spirit lived a vision the vision became his goal in life and in death.
The vision wasn’t his confrontation with Satan. It wasn’t his walk on water. It wasn’t feeding 5000 with small portions of bread and fish. It wasn’t calming storms, healing, casting out demons. It wasn’t his death on the cross. It wasn’t his glorious resurrection.
His vision was much simpler.
Deep in his spirit Jesus saw you. He saw himself lifting you as you fell away from God. He saw himself strengthening you in face of evil. He saw himself singing love songs to you when are lonely. He saw himself celebrating with you in times of joy and crying with you in times of sadness.
And it was this vision that carried him through life with love in his heart and smile on his lips.
At some point today say, “Thanks Jesus, I love you too!”
Have a blest day,
gary
