A wise friend wrote this, i thot i'd share it...
Which Jesus do you follow?
Which Jesus do you serve?
If Ephesians says to imitate Christ,
Then why do you look so much like the world?
Cause my Jesus bled and died
He spent His time with thieves and liars
He loved the poor and accosted the arrogant
So which one do you want to be?
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Or do we pray to be bless me with the wealth of this land
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness
Or do we ache for another taste of this world of shifting sands
Cause my Jesus bled and died for my sins
He spent His time with thieves and sluts and liars
He loved the poor and accosted the rich
So which one do you want to be?
Who is this that You follow
This picture of the American dream
If Jesus was here would you walk right by on the other side
Or fall down and worship at His holy feet
Pretty blue eyes and curly brown hair and a clear complexion
Is how you see Him as He dies for Your sins
But the Word says He was battered and scarred
Or did you miss that part
Sometimes I doubt we’d recognize Him
Cause my Jesus bled and died
He spent His time with thieves and the least of these
He loved the poor and accosted the comfortable
So which one do you want to be?
Cause my Jesus would never be accepted in my church
The blood and dirt on His feet might stain the carpet
But He reaches for the hurting and despises the proud
I think He’d prefer Beale St. to the stained glass crowd
And I know that He can hear me if I cry out loud
I want to be like my Jesus
Not a posterchild for American prosperity,
but like my Jesus You see I’m tired of living for success and popularity
I want to be like my Jesus but I’m not sure what that means
to be like You Jesus Cause You said to live like You,
love like You but then You died for me
Can I be like You Jesus?
I want to be like My Jesus (by Todd Agnew )
The Question is are you like Jesus , are you too much like the world, if Jesus saw you would you run up to him and Give him a Hug or would you hide your face in Fear. The time is coming , the time is coming soon when you stand before Jesus what will he say to you well done good and faithfull servant or will he say with you i am displeased,I pray that you want to be like Jesus, die to yourself give all you got to him, The only way you can ever be like Jesus is read his word, so many Christians dont read his word. This is a very sad fact . and you wonder why there are so many cultural Christians? could you see Jesus walking in your feet as you went through your day today? Would he listen to what you listened to would he think that the Comedian was funny, would he think , man that was the most awesome movie , would he want to hang out with you, Are you like Jesus, do you walk the earth as Jesus did, look at the Gospel's look at what Jesus gave up for people , look at what he did for people , look at how he loved people , When people see you do they say , ya know I thnk there is something diffrent about that kid he has something that i dont have and i think i want it ! if you dont make people think that about you you really need to look at your relationship with Jesus!Jesus should not be you number one But your only one May God Bless you in your Wittness and may your relationship with Jesus Grow Closer everyday
