which Jesus?

Richard Rohr recently posted this quote....

We do not all follow the same Jesus. We also do not all read the same Bible.
                                                      —Whitney Wilkinson Arreche

Some believe in a Jesus that is looking to catch you on a technicality.

Some believe in a Jesus that is exclusive.

Some believe in a Jesus that insists that you believe it just right.

Some believe in a Jesus who has an ego need to be worshipped.

Some believe in a Jesus who is judgmental.

Which Jesus do you believe in?

I believe in a Jesus that loves us.

I believe in a Jesus that is much more interested in being followed than worshipped.

I believe in a Jesus of grace.

What you believe about Jesus/God will play into your life in thousands of ways.  For your mental health, please choose the Jesus of love and grace.  And then follow him into that life of love.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
