Hi, hope you’re doing well ... wasn’t sure where to put this little thread.. but since its more of what God has helped me understand, I guess it’s a testimony ... a little mini one 😚
Since I don’t wanna waffle and I don’t have any blueberries or maple syrup , I’ll skip the backstory..
During prayer and reading the Bible... Seeking Jesus’ help regarding a complex situation.... God impressed upon me to Consider His Body... I knew He meant other believers... but in regards to believed being IN HIM... believers belonging to Him...
and so, even when someone has hurt me... He revealed to me in a lovely way.. to consider His Body....
... then the story of the woman with the alabaster box at Bethany came to mind... how she put ointment on Jesus..
Matthew 26: 6 - 13 , Mark 14: 3 - 9 , John 12: 1 - 8
... and Jesus said, She’s “considering my body” (paraphrase) —> I saw a deeper meaning to considering Jesus’ body and how this woman did just that 🙂
..... so I see other believers so much better now aswell as seeing Jesus in a fresher clearer perspective ... that whatever I do to believers, I’m doing to Jesus’ own body!! That’s scares me a bit, cos obviously I’d wanna be good to His Body... cos it’s Jesus!! So anyway, it’s just caused me to see people in a whole new light, even helping me to forgive those who have hurt me, but also I feel convicted for having hurt others too... cos ultimately I’ve hurt Jesus too... and I don’t wanna hurt Jesus, but if I hurt another believer, then I’m hurting Jesus.... ugh my stomach knotted up when I realised,,, it really had an impact on me Him showing this to me.... I Thank God Most High for helping me understand ... ThankYOU Jesus!!!! Now I can deal with he situation in that light.... Praise Jesus for His High Priestly Good Shepherd Help!!!!!! Amen,
