Just think for a moment.

Just think for a moment.
********************************

We are calling ourselves followers of Jesus.

Are we really following Him or only in words?

The Creator of the universe chose a poor stable to be born in and only a manger to sleep on.

Though the king of the universe, He chose to lead an obedient life for thirty years out of His 33 years of life in this world.

During His public life for three years, He chose to be homeless.

"Foxes have dens and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to rest his head.” (Luke 9:58)

He is constantly on the move with His disciples, counting on the hospitality of their families or others.

Throughout His life He taught His word both by preaching and exemplary life.

He accepts His Father's will (of course it is His will too as He is in His Father, one with Him) that He should suffer.

He washed the feet of His disciples.

He  called Judas, who betrayed Him, "My friend."   (Matthew.26:50)

He prayed His Father to forgive those who crucified Him.

Let us think for a moment to see if we are really following Jesus.
