How Do We React to the Presence of Jesus?

Jesus walked and talked with us in everyday ordinary life.  He was the incarnation of power and yet he subdued that power within himself.  In answer to our need Jesus released and directed his power to heal.  He wanted us to see God as the center of life and to appreciate the poweer of God as the force of good in our world.  But do we respond that way to the presence of Jesus?  Or do we ignore him, push him away, marginalize him?  Are we awestruck by his excellence and beauty?  Or are we frightened by Jesus because he is excellent and beautiful? 

Jesus came to befriend us.  He wanted us to know him.  Jesus did not want us to be afraid or to run away.  Repeatedly, he called us to himself and placed the claim of his friendship upon our hearts. 

Today we look at getting to know Jesus as he wants to be known.  We are invited to see him as he is, not as others tells us or we imagine, but as he really is !  Tune in and consider ways you can get to know Jesus.  Getting to know him brings light, life, joy and serenity into you life.
