“If you could sit down with Jesus for two minutes, what would you say?”

My sister in Christ, “Ashely Nicole,” posed this question in a Facebook post? 

“If you could sit down with Jesus for two minutes, what would you say?”

It made me stop and really think. Please, STOP, think, and answer before you proceed to read my answer. I would love to know your answers in the comments.

My answers:

1. Wow. Could I even mutter? The song, “I Can Only Imagine” ran through my mind…

“I can only imagine. Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel?
Will I dance for You Jesus or in awe of You be still?
Will I stand in Your presence or to my knees, will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah? Will I be able to speak at all? I can only imagine”

2. “I love you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I love you.”

3. Wow. I wake every day, go to bed, and spend every second with My God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He is ALWAYS WITH ME. He said He would never leave me nor forsake me.

Do I tell him I love him, every day? Do I love Him every day? Do I thank Him every day?

God places people in our lives to point us to Jesus. Thanks, sister! You changed my life…perspective…AGAIN.

I enCOURAGE you to sit down with Jesus every day. Talk to God like He is sitting with you because He is. We were created for relationship with Him and others. He loves you so very much and only wants us to love Him and others in return. If you do not know Jesus, allow me to point you to him. He is Savior and Lord, and you need Him in your life.

P.S. ”Ashley Nicole” came into my life in the most God way on February 23, 2016. I was in Kroger trying to reach something from the top of an aisle. She got it down for me. Then right there in the middle of Kroger, she asked me, “Are you OK and how can I pray for you?” I had obviously been crying. I shared my pain with her. It was such a God moment. As a caregiver, I had lost a friend on February 10, 2016. I was still very much missing her and in the process of trying sale our house to move halfway across the state. I was a mess. God sent “Ashley Nicole” to me on that day to point me back to Him and his immense love.

I have only met her in person that one time, but we have stayed in contact via Facebook and handful of phone calls.  She is my sister in Christ who always points me back to Jesus.
