WIJWH

You may be asking, "what's with the weird title?" What on earth does it mean? I will say that, no, I haven't yet learned to blog in code.

You may have heard the expression, WWJD. If not, it means "What Would Jesus Do?" The point is to think about situations in our lives and see them as Jesus would see them. We think about what Jesus would do, and do our best to be like Him. I believe it is a very helpful philosophy to live by, and one that can bring much success to all areas of our lives.

I was reading a book the other day that talked about ways to avoid worrying. It suggested that, when facing difficult situations, it is helpful to imagine Jesus as being right next to us. If He was there with us would we fear? I would think not. So I decided to create the phrase of the title. It stands for "What If Jesus Was Here?" Think about that for a minute. What if Jesus was right next to us and was with us for every situation we encountered in our lives: Our homes; our jobs; our church. We would move ahead with confidence in each and every situation, knowing any difficulties would be handled, and any necessary assistance would be available. Even miracles would be possible.

The truth is..Jesus really IS with us. He is with us in every area and every situation of our lives. They key is to constantly be aware of that. When we realize He is with us we can move ahead with confidence and know the difficulties are being handled. We can know that any necessary assistance is available, and we can even expect miracles!

Let us live our lives as if Jesus was right here with us. We can do that because He is! When we live this way we can live with confidence and power, and we can have great impacts on the world around us. I look forward to hearing your stories.

Have an excellent day : )
