Many of the posts I write are for me. If they speak to others, great!
I write to remind myself. So, here we go.
Jesus said,
"Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord',
and do not do what I tell you?"
Jesus implied,
"I told you to love your enemies.
Why don't you?"
Jesus meant,
"I told you to care for the least of these.
Why aren't you?"
Jesus asks,
"I told you to love Me with all of your being.
Why only 10% of you?"
Jesus said,
"I am building My church.
Why do you only show up on Christmas and Easter?"
Jesus stated,
"Seek first My kingdom.
Why isn't this #1 on your to-do list?"
Jesus commanded,
"Deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Me.
Why do you only talk about this on Good Friday?"
Jesus says,
"I told you to live in the Light.
Why do you flirt with darkness?"
Jesus instructs,
"Make disciples of people.
Why aren't you doing this?"
Jesus said,
"Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord',
and do not do what I tell you?"
"Plainly, in the eyes of Jesus there is no good reason for not doing what he said to do, for he only tells us to do what is best. Just try picturing yourself standing before him and explaining why you did not do what he said was best."
