Jesus the Man

(Jesus spoke to me about Himself)

Tell them about Me, the Man,

Tall, strong, bearded, large hands,

I didn't look like Paul Newman,

Had I planned better, I might have,

Everyone knows I like people-

Who serve other’s needs,

Women, who let men be men,

And Yet,

Remained woman.

You know, I treasured most of all

The times when each man and woman,

Fulfilled their individual needs

By coming to Me,

The deliberate uniqueness of each individual,

Especially in their ways of expressing love.

The rigid rock exterior of Peter,

Softened by his deep inner sensitivity,

The all out upfontness of the Baptist,

You never wondered where he stood,

The incredible gentle ability of Mary M

In allowing a man to feel fullness in manliness,

Mary, My Mother, such unquestioning, unequaled faith

In knowing and understand who I am.

Through them and more,

The God, I am

Was able to become a man,

Knowing and understanding Me is simple,

I am One Who Loves, and enjoys being loved,

This is why John was said to be of God,

He knew who I was and loved Me!

While it is true I have a bit of a temper,

I also have a keen sense of humor,

Imagine what a god could have done

To the Pharisees’ in My Father’s temple,

Be sure to let My People know that-

There were times I felt failure,

Especially waiting while the one’s I created-

Drove nails throughout My Human Flesh

You let someone you love and treasure

Take a hammer and put a nail through you,

Anger, frustration, failure, not to mention pain,

It would have been easy to be God, not man.

Now, let’s not overdo this point,

Remember, like you, I have free will,

I chose to do My Father

I chose to die for you because I love you,

If you truly understand who I am,

You know there could be no other way,

My Father sent me to you to fulfill the law,

I came to share My Father and Brother Spirit,

I came to give Our People hope,

I gave Our People the way to find themselves,

And, Us.
