Christianity is all about Jesus. That’s not the most controversial statement! And yet Jesus can seem strangely absent from our lives.
We celebrate His character. We talk about His work. We’re grateful for His love. But Jesus Himself can feel far away, and His work can feel as if it belongs in the distant past.
Yet Jesus is alive and well today, and He relates to us in the here and now. The risen body of Jesus may be in heaven, but He’s present with His people through the Holy Spirit. He’s active in our lives all the time. Each new day brings fresh opportunities to enjoy His involvement in our lives and respond with love.
