What role does He play in your life?

"Blessed are you, O Lord; teach me your principals." Psalm 119:12

What role does Jesus play in your life and in mine?

Is He our insurance agent-who is used only to keep us safe from the fire?

Is He our personal agent-used only to serve the desires and needs of our self?

Is He our on call doctor-used only when serious illness strikes?

Is He our secret weapon for our political campaign-used only to make ourselves look good and gain the votes of others.

Is He mentioned in conversation-only so we can sound like a Christian-yet not walk the walk?

Do we enter His throne room-only when a crisis strikes?

Is He the president of red-cross-used only when a need arises?

Is He Our friend-only when we need something or need some company? 

OR 

Is He our Savior, Redeemer, lover, and friend? Is He our source of life, our daily bread? Is He the One and Only thing that matters more to us than our families, our selves, our careers, our breath? 

What is Jesus' role in your life?

Jesus You are the very reason we exist. You are more than what we make of You. You are the Creator and the Bread of Life. You are the Inventor of healing, of hope, help, and You are far more important than to be used just so we can look or sound good from a humans perspective. Forgive us for shrinking Your holiness down in order to please the self in us. Reveal just how Holy, powerful, mighty, and amazing You really are. Amen
