You can change the World!
Please read John 14:12-14
This is a beautiful example of how we can in fact change the World.
Look at what JESUS did with 12 people and LOVE and yet here HE tells
us that, “I tell you, the one who believes in ME will also do the works
that I do and in fact will do greater works than these, because I am
going to the FATHER.”
On face value this could be a justification to
continue legalism but wait why would JESUS need to come just to show
us how to follow the law that had been around for centuries? Many
times I hear this passage and in particular vs. 15 used to proliferate
legalism. But again the legalist stop short for in the next chapter vs. 10-
14 we see HIS commandments,
“If you keep MY commandments, you will abide in MY LOVE, just as I
have kept my FATHER’S commandments and abide in HIS LOVE. I have
said these things to you so that MY joy may be in you, and that your joy
may be complete. This is my commandment, that you LOVE one another
as I have LOVED you.”
The rest of this passage goes on to say that through LOVE JESUS calls
us “friends.” I dont know about you but the idea of an all powerful GOD
reaching out nail scarred hands to hug me and call me friend is mighty
nice in fact downright incredible when I consider what I deserve.
JESUS said we would do greater things than HE had done but how is
that possible?
Its possible through LOVE! Its possible through what is happening as I
type this in Houston Texas. Almost makes you forget whose home state
that is doesnt it. Its happening through the kid I just say on Fox who
stole the school bus to take 70 people on an 8 hour bus ride to Houston.
LOVE and the power of LOVE is amazing.
I didnt notice until I finally arrived at the Muslim school in a small village the other day but I had an American flag on my shirt.
Nobody cared because of LOVE.
LOVE
transcends politics and all the other legalistic BS that divides people.
I love you all. Please post any links to where we can get help to through

Dont worry Be Grace-Full!
