If we look in the gospels at how Jesus was he would just be so freakin normal he was a man living in the normal world he walked in the streets he sat with people he talked with them, he ate and slept. He had his friends, he shared his life and loved in a very natural way to Him. He would have people walk up to him, because the Presence of God was so strong in him it drew people to him, they could see difference in the way he loved, cared, had time for people and wasn't just busy and concerned with his own life.
He had nothing about "oh i need to do my shopping don't stop me", "i don't have time i need to get this done today". No he was available, he was willing, he wanted to be with people because he knew that was what his father wanted. He longed to be with people, he longed for them to know God and walk in his presence everyday.
So when i was on outreach there were times that i was frustrated and thought oh we are not doing much, but God has been showing me that He will work through the people that are available to him, that those who are longing after his presence are going to see the supernatural things happen when you are being natural in loving the way Jesus asks and walking in His presence daily.This is something i am trying to learn and trying to live in as i long to see people knowing Jesus and knowing His love for them.
I know God is showing me that this is so not about me, its not about what i do and or the works and services that i do its about my character being in him and allowing Him to work through me and out of me and me laying down my wants and letting God be the first in my life!!
Love is the greatest aim, allow it to be what we long for and what we focus our hearts on in Jesus!!
