Sometimes I try to imagine myself during the times when Jesus, in His human body, was here on this earth, doing the works of His Father. I wonder what I would think, what I would say or what I would do if I met Him. Would I believe that He is truly the One sent by God? Would I become a believer, or I would be more skeptical or even the one who wanted His death? Maybe if I had witnessed one of His miracles. I don’t know. I am not sure if it’s easier to believe now or then. I try to think: what would my reaction be if a young man in His 30’s would come to my neighborhood and claim that He was the one sent by God? Really hard! I don’t want to defend those who didn’t believe back then and out of anger and envy killed Jesus, but I try to understand them. It must have been very difficult to believe and to follow Jesus. Today it is much easier to be a Christian, to be His follower. “Jesus said to them, If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and am here; I did not come on my own, but he sent me.”
