5 Minutes Of Focus...The (Non- Video)
"The Weight Of Responsibility"
Think with me: If Jesus had all those siblings...Why didn't he, when he was preparing to die on the cross choose to leave his mother in the care of one of his siblings?
Instead the bible says:
26 When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, "Woman, here is your son,"
27 and to the disciple, "Here is your mother. "
From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.
John 19:26-27 NIV
Jesus chose to give his mother to his beloved disciple, John and have her live with him.
Looks like Jesus himself, knew what it was like to have siblings that were irresponsible and Him, being the oldest having to make up for their shortcomings.
In this, I want you to see that...
Focus Points:
1.Jesus made the best possible decision he could under the circumstances.
2. You were made in the image and likeness of Jesus...Therefore, you too are capable of making the best decision, capable of making the best of things, despite your current situation.
3. You don't always have to make the obvious choice and appease people.
(Jesus leaving his mother in the care of one of his siblings would have been the obvious choice...But it wasn't his choice).
4. Just because they are related to you...That doesn't mean they can do things as efficient as you.
5. The weight of responsibility is real, but if God chose you for the task....You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.
Philip 4:13
6. Their shortcomings are just that >>>THEIRS!
Thanks for thinking with me...
Hope this helped SOMEBODY!
