To follow jesus implies that we enter into a way of life that is given character and shape and direction by the one who calls us. to follow jesus means picking up rhythms and ways of doing things that are often unsaid but always derivative from jesus, formed by the influence of jesus. to follow jesus means that we can't separate what jesus is saying from what jesus is doing and the way that he is doing it. to follow jesus is as much, or maybe even more, about feet as it is about ears and eyes" (the way of jesus, eugene h. peterson, 22).
Jesus Character Mean
This kingdom of god life is not a matter of waking up each morning with a list of chores or an agenda to be tended to, left on our bedside table by the holy spirit for us while we slept. we wake up already immersed in a large story of creation and covenant, of israel and jesus, the story of jesus and the stories that jesus told. we let ourselves be formed by these formative stories, and especially as we listen to the stories that jesus tells, get a feel for the way he does it, the way he talks, the way he treats people, the jesus way.

Confronting our feelings and giving them appropriate expression always takes strength, not weakness. it takes strength to acknowledge our anger, and sometimes more strength yet to curb the aggressive urges anger may bring and to channel them into nonviolent outlets. it takes strength to face our sadness and to grieve and to let our grief and our anger flow in tears when they need to. it takes strength to talk about our feelings and to reach out for help and comfort when we need it.

I would like to ask you a question: how many of you pray to the holy spirit every day? probably few, but we must satisfy this desire of jesus and pray every day to the holy spirit, so that he opens our heart towards jesus.
Jesus Heart Desire
To be good christians you have to contemplate the suffering humanity of jesus. "how can we bear witness? contemplate jesus. how can we forgive? contemplate jesus suffering. how can we not hate our neighbor? contemplate jesus suffering. how can we avoid gossiping about our neighbor? contemplate jesus suffering. there is no other way". these virtues are the those of the father, who forgives us always, and our lady, our mother, shares in these virtues too.

As christians, we must see that just because an artist-even a great artist-portrays a worldview in writing or on canvas, it does not mean that we should automatically accept that worldview. good art heightens the impact of that worldview, but it does not make it true.

The missionary question is not, 'where are there unbelievers?' and then send a missionary there. there are unbelievers everywhere! the missionary question is, 'where are there people's who don't have any christians in them or don't have a church strong enough to do the neighbor evangelism that we can do if we just want to do it?' that's the missionary question.
