Can You Imagine if You Met Him?

Can you imagine if you met Him in person?

What if you were going about your day, your everyday activities. And there He was – Jesus, just walking towards you.

How would you feel? What would you do?

I imagine that I am walking on a path. As I am coming to a Y intersection on the path, a man approaches the intersection almost at the very same time. As we meet, I pause with anticipation that one of us must yield to the other in order for us to continue in the same direction. That is when I realize. It’s Him! It’s Jesus! My gosh! He is walking right here next to me! Just a person just like me walking right next to me. Yet, He is not the same. This is who saved me! I believe in Him. I read about Him. I have worshiped Him. I have met Him in my dreams. I have met Him in my mind. I have met Him in my soul. I have met Him in others. He has touched me, yet not exactly like I know physical touch. He has been the root of my emotions without ever seeing Him. He is my Spiritual being and I know Him well yet I have no other explanation except, I JUST KNOW HIM. I write about Him. I tell others about Him. And here he stands before me. What do I do?

This sounds trite. I know what I would do.

I would extend my hand to shake His. As I grab His hand, I would pull Him into me and I would HUG HIM. I would say THANK YOU. I think I would cry! It would be the most incredible experience of my life!

There is only one other thing I could imagine to do in this situation.

FOLLOW HIM.
