Monday, July 27, 2015 "Fan or Follower of Jesus?"

And if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. Romans 8:17-19

Are you a fan or follower of Jesus?  Often times people love Jesus only when things are going well in their life. Others turn to Jesus only when their lives are in turmoil. The truth is Jesus is the answer not an answer so we are to love Him through good times and bad. He is the same yesterday today and forever. He is the great I Am. He is consistent and His Word never changes nor will it ever fail. A life with Jesus is not all peaches and cream. A fan looks at Jesus as a magic genie or ATM machine that grants all their wishes and showers them with cash. A follower knows a life dedicated to our Lord and Savior will bring about rewards money cannot buy. Blessings such as peace, everlasting love, joy and contentment. A follower also knows trials and tribulations will come for no one is exempt.  Only you can decide for yourself what it is going to be. So are you going to be a fan of Jesus when it suits you or are you going to be a follower of Jesus, no matter what lies ahead? The choice is yours.
