Jesus Vision

Matthew 23:37-39

"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing. Look, your house is left to you desolate. For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"

It is so important that we as Christians develop Jesus vision. You see Christ spoke these words above after he had been exalted upon entering Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. Most of us would still be hanging out with the crowd trying to soak up whatever attention was left that the crowd would be willing to give us.

Not my Jesus though. He was on a hill over-looking the great city of Jerusalem in anguish over the citizen's stubborn hearts. When was the last time you sat on a hill and cried over your city? When was the last time you begged God to save and reveal himself to Birmingham, Auburn, Atlanta, Rex, Jonesboro, Memphis, Wadley, Jackson, or Mobile?

You must pray for the lost...Until your heart breaks, that people all-around you are going to burn in hell, you do not know the love that resided in the heart of my Savior...May you find it...Have the vision of Christ...Godspeed!

A PLEA!!!
This Easter week please get off of your lazy butt, and tell someone about Jesus. If you decide you are too busy, you will be held responsible by an almighty God for neglecting his commission. GO!
