Reflections Along the Jesus Way
August 3, 2024 – Quote for the Day:
“We are not alone. Jesus lives in us and we in him. We remain in Jesus, and he remains in us (John 15:4-7, 9-10)… Jesus doesn’t come to live with us and simply rent a room because he won’t be here that long. He doesn’t check in and check out depending on whether we are pleasing or displeasing him, as religion would have us believe… Jesus doesn’t just come to visit us when we really need his help, checking into a hotel nearby, visiting us, taking care of us, comforting us, and then, when we’re all better, he checks out and moves on to the next assignment. We aren’t just another task to him. Jesus takes up residence in our lives. He is both resident in our life and president of our lives. He remains with us and in us.”
