What was and are the keys to what Jesus seeks in people?
“Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town. Some men brought to him a paralyzed man, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.” At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, “This fellow is blaspheming!” – Matthew 9:1-3
Jesus told people to “Follow me” and this was a Huge cultural and life shift for all who did!
Why?
In short because Jesus Knew taught, shared, lived and emulated a God that people never thought possible then and they still don’t today. Here is what I mean by that:
1) Faith was All that was needed! Trust that God Loves you, Rest in the knowledge of God as Love. Be at Peace with the growing heart based understanding that “God Is Love”, He Loves me just as I am and because of that and knowing God is All Powerful, nothing can come into my life that He didn’t allow for my good!
2) LOVE like there is no tomorrow and Forgive like there was no yesterday! Growing Lovers is what the ministry of Jesus was All about – there was no skin color, religion preference, prejudice or exclusion with Jesus – ALL were welcomed and ALL were and are Loved!
3) Don’t worry about those who are proper religiously – just Love! I wasn’t called to be proper or legally perfect or to attempt to do so – I was called and commissioned to LOVE like Jesus did and does – UNCONDITIONALLY!
May we All know The God of Whom Jesus Knew!
