#3 The Son of Man

I love the last part of the sermon The Son of Man asks "do you believe I am who I am, will you trust me" I have been challenged with that question so many times, do you trust me? Do you trust your relationships with me, do you trust your future plans with me? How can I say no, to a loving a trustworthy Lord that gave up everything to be one of us to be just like me and live a human life and become The Son of Man.

I pray that I continue to trust the Son of Man with my life, my future, my relationships, and who I am to be like You.

Bread of Life

To be reminded of the story of the Israelites and God’s offering of the manna as they were wandering in the wilderness allows me to reflect on a few ideas and themes in my own relationship with Him: 1.       Discipline/ Devotion : Am I going out every day to receive the bread of life? Noticing a deep desire to be in relationship with God is a good measure to point out a habit of coming. Those who keep coming to the bread of life understand the nourishment and goodness, which makes us want to come back. 2.       Trust : Am I trusting that God will provide? Taking more bread than told like the Israelites, shows that I am more concerned with how I want to satisfy myself rather than letting God satisfy me. 3.         Recognizing God : Am I recognizing a greater reality that God is near? Seeing signs (such as the raining down of manna) but not noticing them as ways in which God extends His love on us m...

Baptized In and With

I was first baptized when I was only a few days old, so I have no recollection of the event at all. It wasn't until my freshman year of high school that I truly came to experience Jesus. When this happened I had very little biblical knowledge and I had no idea about salvation or the true meaning of baptism at the time. Later, I learned the evangelist way of baptism, so I figured that was my peak Jesus moment. It is encouraging to hear, however, that this was not my only moment and that Jesus will continuously baptize me with the Holy Spirit as long as I trust in him. Another encouraging thing to hear is that there is no graduating from Jesus school. I think so much I fall into the trap of comparing my biblical knowledge to that of other Christians. I see others as having it all figured out but in reality, they are still, and will always be, learning more and more about Christ. Thank you Jesus for continuously pouring into me, and I pray that you use me despite how uncomfortable the...
