Sometimes it's hard to get behind somebody's head. What in the world were they thinking? (Even that question can be read with different voice inflection to mean different things.) I have to remember what I know about Jesus - His words, His actions and Who He knows. I wonder what Jesus has in mi?
When I was a kid I sometimes wished I was in another person's shoes. Their life sure looked good! They had things I didn't and didn't have things I did. Much like the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, I was sure they must have it better. Of course, I grew up, found out that isn't always the case and, in reality, I didn't have I so bad. Then I read about the promises of God. I wonder what Jesus has in mind?
I've said in my life if I lose everything, I will still have family and friends. I hope I don't have to come to that place, but I know there are people in the world for whom that is true. I've dreamed of having to sleep in a shelter. At least it would be a shelter. Could I still be solid in my faith if I truly emptied myself? I wonder what Jesus has in mind?
Now I hear about being "fully present". Live in the moment and be what I can be in that moment. Hmm . . . I wonder what Jesus has in mind?
