When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I remember talking to my Mom as a child about how I wanted to be like JESUS. She, being a very wise woman, told me in simple terms how that would be hard to do.
She didn’t say impossible, she just it would be hard. She didn’t want to discourage me. She explained why. Because of why JESUS had come to earth.
She told me all that our beloved JESUS went through as a man here on this earth. She said that he was mistreated and abused by mankind. And then gave up his life too
With other things that JESUS went through, it gave me more thought. JESUS was to me perfectly good. Strong in will, wiser than all of the wicked people around HIM. It is powerful to be able to heal people.
Loving and patient. Good to people because HE was good. My JESUS is my perfect example of how a true GOD fearing and loving person needs to be.
Able to know what’s in a person’s heart and mind. Being able to know what their intentions are, too.
I understand now what I didn’t back then. It would be impossible to be like JESUS for HE is Devine. The son of the one and only true living GOD. The perfect savior for all mankind. The only way to heaven is thru JESUS.
No one can actually be just like JESUS. Because JESUS is the only one who can save all mankind. JESUS has been given the power by GOD the FATHER.
Listening to all that my said made so much since. To go by the example as best as one humanly can to follow JESUS’S footsteps is what I do. My savior, teacher, and friend JESUS!
So, to be like my Mother is more realistic. She is a good GODLY woman. I look up and love and admire. I want people to say that I am a GODLY woman too! Thank you, FATHER GOD, for giving me this wonderful, beautiful, intelligent woman as my Mother!ππΎππΎππΎ
Peace and blessings!
