As I look at the things Jesus believed in and try to shape my beliefs to match, I think it only right that I also look at the way he lived his life, the actions he took, what he did and see if my actions match.
So, again, not an exhaustive list by any means but here are some of the things Jesus did..
-He grew up
-He knew the Scriptures
-He worshiped in a wide variety of places
-He prayed constantly
-He had emotions
-He had a sense of humor
-He acted in very unexpected ways
-He admitted that he didn’t always know everything
-He went out of his way to acknowledge the outcasts of society
-He healed the sick
-He recognized when people wanted him and when they didn’t and respected their decision
-He gave people room to succeed or fail
-He delegated authority and responsibility
-He found solitude
-He made time to talk with people
-He knew how to talk to people as people
-He provided for needs, both spiritual and physical
Do my actions during the day, week, month echo the actions of God?
