The right thing

Believe
44 Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me believes not only in me but also in the one who sent me, 45 and whoever sees me sees the one who sent me. 46 I came into the world as light, so that everyone who believes in me might not remain in darkness. 47 And if anyone hears my words and does not observe them, I do not condemn him, for I did not come to condemn the world but to save the world. 48 Whoever rejects me and does not accept my words has something to judge him: the word that I spoke, it will condemn him on the last day, 49 because I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. So what I say, I say as the Father told me.”-John12:44-50



Jesus is inviting us all to believe Him. Jesus is so full of love that He does not condemn nor judge. It will be our very own actions, our very heart, that will judge us. True that sometimes we are victims of injustice. Jesus knows how to make it right. But most of the time, we invite injustice and condemnation into our very own lives through our decisions. Why cry over imprisonment if indeed we committed a criminal act? Everything is grace. Jesus knows how to make things right.
