A
reminder for today
I am taking some time off my friend and will write to you
again once I have returned from my journey. I often wonder where we are when we
do not recognize the face looking back at us in the mirror. Life can often
throw a few bumps in our direction and break a few dreams, yet we should remain
focussed and faithful in Jesus. He knows best and His way is the right way.
When we continue to follow His loving voice we will never be disappointed.
So I leave you with this last message. As they approached, Jesus said, "Now
here is a genuine son of Israel—a man of complete integrity." "How do
you know about me?" Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, "I could see you
under the fig tree before Philip found you." Then Nathanael exclaimed,
"Rabbi, you are the Son of God—the King of Israel!" (John 1:47-49)
As Christmas approach and the year finally comes to an
end we are about to celebrate the birth of our saviour and King. If you have
forgotten what it is all about and you are lost in your own troubles, here are
my thoughts about that. Jesus said that He saw Nathanael when He was still
under the fig tree. To me this means that Jesus saw you way before you came to
Him. He loved you first and He watched you when you were still on your way to
Him. You might feel a little lost some times but these are the times when you
feel alone when Jesus is watching you, waiting for you. Just as He gave up His
life for you He still stand each day watching you and calling out to you to
come to Him.
Come and let us stand up from under our fig trees and
walk up to Jesus. You are no stranger to Him. He knows who you really are and
who you are supposed to be. He will guide you on your way so that you can reach
your true identity in Him. You are a child of God and a friend of Jesus. Live
it!!
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
