I have been tagged by a fellow blogger and have been asked to share five things I dig about Jesus. Afterward I am to tag five other people and leave a link in their comment section so we can keep track of what is shared. The origin of this meme can be found at John Smulo’s blog. So…he it goes:
(1) Jesus was not (and is not) repulsed by "sinners" (like the wild naked man running through the tombs and me).
(2) When pushed by the "powers that be" (and even by His very own disciples) Jesus stood His ground. He knew His mission and kept His face set toward the cross.
(3) Jesus was the first youth director: "Let the little children come to me and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs". (Mt. 19:14)
(4) Jesus is always ready to leave the 99 in order to search for the one (me) who has strayed.
(5) Jesus loves me so much that He was willing to endure such torture and pain and die on a cross that I may live forever with Him.
There is more I could add to this list, but five is all that was asked for. Now…the five people that have been tagged are as follows:
I hope you five are O.K. with me tagging you but I would love to read your lists.

The Heart of a Pastor 
Great list! fun to read it…
Really great list!
This is a great meme Eric. Lots of good answers to the question.
Eric you mention,five things you dig about Jesus
He was wounded for our iniquity’s, he suffered and was killed for us, for me. He loves us so very much.
There is nothing I can do to make him love me any less, Sure I can run away but he is always there to pick me up and put me on the path.
He is waiting for us, to come to him and we shall spend eternity with him.
In the Darkest night of my soul he was there, When no one else was there he is there,
He is my rock and my salvation, to whom shall I go? Jesus has the words of eternal life.
Jesus sent us the Holy Spirit.
I could go on, What can we say to the one who gave us everything?
Eric-
Great list and great devotion. Thanks for the tag.

I tried to post a link to say that I did this , but apparently it wouldn’t post. Look at 6/21/2007
Sometimes blogging software doesn’t allow you to post links unless you change your preferences.
Anyway…great list. I can definitely relate to those as well. I talk about about my brothers and sisters in Christ and pray for them but as you said, the internet has brought the Family of God a lot closer. Kind of cool.
