I feel that 98% of "Christians" do NOT really get how mind blowing Jesus really is.
He is not "my homeboy"... he is the author of everything. He is master of everything, who humbled himself to enter his creation to redeem his creation. He was not created. He has never not been. He has ALWAYS been. he exists outside of time and matter. He loves an lives within me.
A few years ago, I was exhausted emotionally and spiritually. Life, harder than ever fathomed it could be. I was ready to leave this world. Flying to vacations, I secretly hoped the plane would crash. From this place of exhaustion, pain, and destitution came help from a Jesus I claimed to know since I was a child... Claimed to follow. I claimed him to be Lord of my life. But he was not. I had not chosen to follow him. Not whole heartedly. My will opposed submission to his... Whatever it might be.
When I reached a low point of personal exhaustion, I threw my hands up and said, "okay, I'll do it your way."
He has redeemed me... He is transforming me. He has saved me. He has saved my marriage. He has made life worth living. He had given me a purpose. He has given me hope. He has given me joy.
Truly... Without Christ I am nothing. He has saved my everything. I owe him all. To stand up against God's will and say "I will do this an that, not what you want," is to take a stand against God the way Lucifer took a stand when he exalted his own will above that of God's will.
Jesus is not an initial on a bracelet... He is not a dashboard bobble head. He is not a catchy slogan. He is not a watered down "prophet" or a "good man" who lived thousands of years ago.
He is the author of life. He is your only way to life... He is my Lord. My savior. Without him, I have nothing.
My heart breaks for everyone who has not realized this. They are missing out on the greatest gift ever given to mankind. Jesus Christ is Lord of lords... King of kings.
