All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others
...all they saw was a carpenter.
He will continue to say what, He knows you need to hear. He weighs the heart; A person thinks everything he does is right, but the LORD weighs hearts. Pro 21:2 When you finally are humble before Him. No more reasons why, you can not surrender all to Him. It is then that you begin. All the people who Jesus healed, it was after they had accepted Him and who He Is. When Jesus returned to His hometown, to the place where He grew up. All they could see was the son of Joseph, not the Son of the Most High.
1 Jesus left that place and went to his hometown. His disciples followed him. 2 When the day of worship came, he began to teach in the synagogue. He amazed many who heard him. They asked, "Where did this man get these ideas? Who gave him this kind of wisdom and the ability to do such great miracles? 3 Isn't this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon? Aren't his sisters here with us?" So they took offense at him. 4 But Jesus told them, "The only place a prophet isn't honored is in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own house." 5 He couldn't work any miracles there except to lay his hands on a few sick people and cure them.
6 Their unbelief amazed him... Mark 6:1-6
Because, they could not see past what they thought they knew, they were unable to receive anything from Jesus. What they thought, effected and then prevented them to receive, what they needed, to be healed. Because they could only see a carpenter, they were not able to see the Son of God. Again and again we read what Jesus says, “ Your faith has made you whole.” It was and is the ability, to see Jesus as God’s Son, and to have faith that He knows, and will bring what is best for you. To lay down your burdens at His Feet then, to follow Him. Your Shepherd has cleared a path for you to go. No matter who you are, at some point along the way you will have to make a choice, your burdens or His Hand. The climb will demand that choice. Once again, when you are at the end of who you think you are, then you begin to be who you are in Christ. To build each other up, not to tear down. To pray for each other, not to judge and then gossip. Remember, we are the Body, we move as One in Him. If one trips then, the rest work even harder, to balance. The same as we do in the physical, we can use the examples in Spiritual. The Love of God binds us together. Above all, be loving. This ties everything together perfectly. Col 3:14 At all cost we must as well as, need to remember that to be true.
