The Gospels are filled with stories of how Jesus interacted with people who didn't really fit in. Not just regular stories, amazing stories of how HE treated them in such a way that was empowering and sometimes culturally offensive to everyone of that time period. Jesus interacted with people that were of a different race, different genders, had known sin, or disease, and of every occupation (as well as religious leaders).
Surely Jesus desired that all of these people would embrace the truth.
So WHAT DID JESUS DO?
*He healed the sick
*He fed the hungry
*He delivered the oppressed
*He told people to tell others what God had done for them
*He praised people for their great faith
*He Humbly obeyed God
What didn't He do?
* hold to prejudicial norms
*condemn
*argue theology
*act superior
It maybe that you are the one who feels like you don't fit in.....remember this, Jesus wants to be your Savior. You need only call upon His name to be saved, and you will for ever belong to the family of God! And that, my dear one, is a very amazing relationship!
