everything

we all feel the affect
i sat there last night
in my windbreaker
hat
boots
Jesus said many things
mostly about hell
but too about crosses
denying ourselves
serving
calling God "Daddy"
commanded us to eat His Flesh
drink His Blood
crazy stuff!
"before Abraham I am"
changed water to really good wine
walked on water
ate fish
went without food for 40 days and nights
hung out with hick fisherman
whores
tax collectors
accused of drinking too much
spit upon
beard pulled out
so afraid he sweat blood
this is who we follow
He never promised to make us happy
wealthy
well
at least not during the cross carrying days on this earth
"abundant life" must mean something we don't get
and having a "personal relationship" with Jesus?
we should be very careful with this thinking
It can greatly water down what He wants from us,
everything.
