My mom's name isn't Jesus. Neither is my pastor's name. Neither are my friends, siblings or other loved ones named Jesus. So I need to stop expecting them to act like my Savior, meet all my needs (especially the unspoken ones) and be the bearer and originator of all good things.
This is a lesson I must CONTINUALLY relearn.
Anyone in your life you (secretly) mistake for Jesus?
As dear Simon Peter says in his second letter (chapter 1, verse 13) "I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live..."
Let's take the time to refresh our memories and leave the expecations and needs in the mighty and capable hands of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. And let our loved ones be just that - Loved Ones.
