Walking Where Jesus Walked
I have said it before on here that I am always amazed... and maybe a little amused... at the number of people who go to the "Holy Land" each year. They go to walk the streets Jesus walked... to see the sites Jesus saw.
Well friend... I hate to disappoint you but that city was completely and utterly destroyed in 70ad. It was destroyed so completely that it was used as a farm field for years. The street called Straight that Jesus walked... gone. No longer there.
The same goes to the rest of it.
So why do I say this... not to ruin anyones day or to be rude etc. I saw a picture today in a video that made me think.
It said... walk where Jesus walked... and it appeared that he was walking on water.
I thought about that and thought...wow... that makes me think.
You want to walk where Jesus walked?
Walk with the sinner. The street called straight is gone. But sinners are still here.
You want to walk where Jesus walked?
Walk with the publican...
The harlot...
The widow...
You want to walk where Jesus walked?
The only "places Jesus walked" that remain are the empty spaces beside the sinners of this world... and the water...
So... I would challenge us all... to walk where Jesus walked.
