Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have enough room for the books that would be written. (John 21:25 NIV)
Christmas
In all my thoughts this Christmas season- pondering, wonder, and might keep penetrating my heart. The amazement of God sending Jesus into this world through a virgin birth. To be the Messiah- Savior of mankind, setting forth true Heaven on earth examples.
Examples
How often do we follow Jesus’s examples? Consider thinking…not enough space in this world for books John could have written- testifying to Jesus’s examples? Then Jesus tells…we will do greater things than Him. Something is sadly missing. We are not fulfilling our potential.
Potential
Potential energy is just that- sitting with possibility. First problem area- we have to see through impossible situations that there are possibilities. Jesus’s examples proved time again taking impossible situations, proving possibilities through miracles. Miracles, signs, and wonders are destined for end times. We have to believe in Jesus Christ. It is through His power and our belief possibilities exist. If we try on our own, we’ll keep tunnel vision and only see the impossible.
Accomplish
Once energy is activated, tasks are accomplished. When faith is activated- we have stronger belief in Jesus’s examples, more apt to accomplish. Greater faith always seemed to move Jesus into action. Greater faith + Stronger Belief= Miracles.
Results
Did Peter really love Jesus? Each time Peter answered, “Yes.” Jesus responded:
- “Feed my lambs.”
- “Take care of my sheep.”
- “Feed my sheep.”
- “Follow me!”
Peter being reminded of his three denials- took Jesus’s Words to heart and became one of the early church’s most fearless spokesperson. Friends, we too can leave denial behind and step forward learning to live by God’s examples. Just maybe…we’ll do greater things than Jesus. It’s possible!
Be encouraged!
