When the disciples volunteered to follow Jesus, he told them a few things that seem to be in sync with God's "all or nothing" requirement:
foxes have holes; let the dead bury the dead ... and that he was about his father's business and I wondered; what on earth is up with this Jesus. I know now that Jesus did not mean the physically dead when he addressed them... this Jesus and all his parables; he always answered the question and, not necessarily what the words implied.
I ask God to help me make sense of this Jesus and the easiest way is to do the hardest thing... think like a child! Now I understand why Jesus used a child to make a point to the disciples and his parable of a camel going through the eye of a needle and better to make it to the pearly gates with one eye and one hand...
WOW God! Thank you for 'fresh eyes'!
Who taught Jesus all this analogy?
Don't answer that! I already know!
Thank you that with you, this too is possible... you know that my adult body is full of cells that need to go back in time to when there was no time. That calls for courage, wisdom, trust and I mean, God-size trust!
So why didn't Abraham ask you questions when you made no sense in the scientific world (in his mind)?
You must have put some instructions in his heart and he, Abraham, though it made no sense to him, followed them as best as he could, is that it?
Don't answer that either! I am figuring it out!
You told me that you will explain later so as much as I would like to ask you when, I will just do what Father Abraham did.
That's why I wanted you to loan me Abraham's faith however knowing you, you would rather that I ask you for my very own mustard size faith to start blooming and flowering and of course, yield multitude of blessings.
Alright, alright let's continue crossing your tightrope! I am right behind you holding on for, dear life!
And the best part is, I am hitched to your yoke!
Thank you
