I struggle in my relationship with Jesus because I can't see Him. I wish He would appear to me and go through one of my days with me. That way, I could see his response to everything and everyone--without a doubt. I could see if He smiled at any jokes (off color or otherwise). I could see who and what made Him raise an eyebrow. I could watch and see how He handles all those uncomfortable situations that I don't know how to handle. For instance, I was invited to play poker Saturday night. I went even though I may have been the only Christian in the group of nine men. They smoked cigars and drank whiskey and made some pretty raunchy comments about women and marriage (and themselves). I felt oddly uncomfortable. On one hand, I'm a man, so there was nothing said that I can't ultimately relate to. On the other hand, I feel drawn to men who want to honor God and who have values that come from Jesus and the Bible. So what would Jesus have done? Drink with them? Smoke with them? I tried to accept them as they were and yet not betray myself or my values...but it was weird.
Any thoughts?
Bill that was Awesome!
Did I hear the commentator say " She just hit him with the Bible"?
