My Spirit Says 'Yes!'

The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the Glory of the One and Only, who came down from the Father, full of grace and truth. Jn 1:14

How awesome that would be to have God living in your town, next door even. What caused the people who knew Jesus to reject Him? Was it His ordinariness during His growing up years? Or was it that they judged with their eyes and not their hearts? If they truly had a spiritual bone in their bodies they would say yes because spirit would meet spirit and say 'Yes!'

What caused John to leave his fishing nets and follow Jesus? Did he recognise Jesus and his spirit say 'Yes'? John loves Jesus and wanted to stay close to Him, what caused that?

I searched for Jesus within the religious system from when I was 4, but it took me until 19 to find Him outside the system. He found me.

I had people trying to show me the way but I rejected their offers of help, I saw it as another religion, not relationship.

My sister has that same opinion now. I can only do for her what others did for me, pray and love.
