How will we respond?

How will we respond to a God who gave us everything, though we deserved nothing?

How will we respond to a God who tells us what to do then helps us do it?

How will we respond to a God who demands that we have no other god before Him, for He is a jealous God??

How will we respond to a God who asks us to lay down our lives to Him and for Him?

How will we respond to a God that is powerful enough to create life and also utterly destroy it?

How will we respond to a God who is higher than the heavens, yet closer than our toaster?? And who knows every hair on our head?

How will we respond to a universe creating God who knows more about us than we know about ourselves?

How will we respond to a God who stepped out of heaven and became a man?

How will we respond to a God who was willingly beaten?

How will we respond to a God who allowed Himself to be nailed to a piece of wood for crimes He did not commit? For sicknesses that were not His? And for the sins we try to hide?

How will we respond to a God who created us, and fully knowing our faults, still said, "Come and follow Me?", because He believes we can do what He asks of us??

How will we respond?

May Gods blessings shower down upon you. And may you be coated in the dust of your Rabbi!
