F you had slept in the same house or field with Jesus, awakened with him, eaten with him and helped him, what would you have observed? One thing we always think of is that Jesus gave himself almost entirely to what we would consider interruptions. Most of the teaching, healing and wonders we see in his life were responsive..seemingly unplanned. He trusted that what the Father allowed to cross his path was exactly that..from the Father. Jesus always seemed willing for things to get messy. Marcia Lebhar
