episode #2a John 11 series- Do you bring Jesus down to your emotions? cover

Beskrivelse

Our human tendency is to focus on ourselves. We are also conditioned by the world to obsess about our feelings and thoughts. We end up putting that expectation on Jesus. If He doesn't show up in the way we expect, we dump down further in our sorrow and disappointment. In John 11, Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead. But He doesn't meet the expectations of people He loves, and they let Him feel the weight of that. Jesus weeps. But is it for the reasons that are commonly taught? If you look closely at the account of John, we see something different. Be willing to find yourself in this account and see how you treat Jesus. See if your disappointments and expectations are blocking His life and power. Stay for prayer at the end! And sign up to receive email inspiration at knowingJesuswithGina.com!
