As A Follower Of Jesus, I Work 'With' God, Not 'For' God

Jesus came to free us from the slavery of religion....A list of check boxes that we can daily say we haven’t broken. Some how it makes us feel safe. But the life Jesus calls us to is far more risky, far more unsafe – but it is the only life that is free.

As a follower of Jesus, I don’t work for God. I have learned that I work ‘with’ God. I need to go out and find where He is and join Him. When God chose to come down and show us what Love looks like, He came as one ‘with’ us. That is the point of the incarnation. He sojourned with humanity. Jesus asked people to follow Him, to come ‘with’ Him. In His absence, He now comes ‘with’ us and we ‘discover’ Him and join Him.  

Blessings,
Dalinda
