Sometimes we want our relationship with Jesus to be like putting on our “soft clothes”---you know a comfy sweatshirt and pants that we can just relax into.
But living our lives with Jesus as the Way is much more like putting on a wetsuit. It pinches us and is too tight in some places; it’s hard to put on---a challenge to even get into.
But, it protects us from the outside elements and allows us to survive our environment. It allows us to dive deeper and experience depths of this vast ocean we’d never see on our own.
Jesus didn’t come to help us settle into the status quo.
Jesus came to change the world---including the little corner that is our own life.
Expect to be challenged.
