I'm just sitting here at a coffee shop and I just finished the book I've been working on. As I was reading it I started thinking about Jesus and how human he was. I got lost in thoughts about what he looked like, what color his eyes were, what it'd be like to look into his eyes, how tall he was, how warm his smile would be, what it'd feel like to be wrapped in his arms and to feel the warmth of his skin. Jesus was very human. In thinking about these things I think I opened a whole new love for him in my heart. So many times we think of Jesus as this untouchable being that lived here on earth at one time long ago and we have trouble making a humanly personal connection with him. We usually don't have a problem connecting with him emotionally or spiritually, but we do physically because we can't see him. Just for a second imagine what it'd be like to hug Jesus.... I don't know about you but I just about lost it just thinking about that. I also think its important to remember that Jesus was not American. He was not white. He probably looked very much like what we think of when we think of a terrorist (its sad to say that we stereotype so bad these days). Realizing this tears down so many walls when it comes to accepting other ethnicities and being able to love them to the greatest potential. Just some stuff to think about...thats all for now =)
