What does Jesus mean to you?

Jun 22, 2005 11:39

Hello there readers.

In an email i recieved today i was asked a question that i have never been asked before, which when i think about it is quite surprising since i am a christian and this should be on the forefront of my mind twenty four hours a day seven days a week. With that said i was quite challenged by this question and i thought i would share it with one and all so you too have the opportunity to reflect over the same question.

And so without further adue the question(s): What does Jesus mean to you? and How do you think Jesus sees you? What awesome questions to ask and not only to christians but to non christians alike.

So now I would like to encourage and challenge everyone who happens to read this blog of mine to think about these things and then either share your thoughts with whoever you like or please feel free to either post your response to the above questions as comments in reply to this post or drop me an email if you like. I am sure you all have my email address.

So what were your responses will? I hear you all ask. well i shall keep you in suspense no longer.

What does Jesus mean to me? I've never been asked this question before which when one things about it is quite surprising as a christian. He is the perfect example of how to live god's way and how to have perfect relationship with God. Jesus was totally awesome in that he wilingly took onto himself the punishment and judgement that we thoroughly deserved so that he could bring us back to God by His love for us and through the Grace of God the father almighty. How could someone so good and pure give up his life willingly for people who are so impure and wicked? Why would someone like that save me? How amzing is his love? so amzing that it is incomprehensible.

How do i think Jesus sees me? I think he sees a man who desperately is trying to live after him following his example and striving to live a godly life serving God with all my heart. But he still sees a singful man who repents and asks the lord for forgiveness and through my faith i know that he does forgive me and gives me the strength to turn away from all impurity that this world tries to suffocate us with.

Father God thank you so much for sending your one and only beloved son Jesus Christ, that you sent him as a pure sacrifice of atonement once and for all for all sin for all time. Father such is your grace that you poor it out over those who don't deserve it thank you for loving all of us so. Help us to turn to you through your son Jesus Christ that we acknowledge him as our lord and saviour. We pray that with your help we will not give into the temptations of this world but we will live for you in every aspect of our lives constantly witnessing about you to all people of all nations so that more and more people will come to see your loving grace and your everlasting glory and be drawn back to you in repentance and in faith and love of your son.

In the name of our lord Jesus Christ Amen.

So what does Jesus mean to you? and how do you think he sees you now? Is there anything in your life that needs to change? I know that i have areas that i need to and am working on. And if things are not right between you and God can i please encourage you to sit down with someone and make things right and don't put it off until tomorrow do it now.

God bless each and every one of you. Until next time Will
