Why Be "Normal"?

When orthodox solutions don't solve the problem, try unorthodox thinking.
* When the wedding feast was running out of wine, Jesus turned water into the BEST wine.
* When Jesus told His Disciples that He would meet them on the other side of the Sea of Galilee, Jesus strolled across the Sea to meet them.
* We got tired of sleeping on stones, so someone came up with mattresses.
* We wanted to get a jump on the day, and coffee was the result.
 

What was the focus of Jesus' thinking? People and their relationships.  Jesus had a method to His sermons, and it's called "Three S System" - Say it, Shut up, Sit down.  If you read any of Jesus sermons and teachings, they could be delivered in less than 15 minutes.  He didn't feel the need to go on for hour upon hour.  Jesus was unorthodox!  Jesus was not "normal" and I am so glad of that!
 
One of the things I love about Jesus is His way of thinking "outside the box".  Think about it!
What message did He leave for us?  Love God! Love Others! As you are going through life, Make Disciples!  Very simple message! Simplicity...make it the new "normal".
