So according to my students I am now older than Jesus... Of all the life time goals I have on my list that never made the page. It was neither a goal to aim for or a benchmark for success in my life but yet here I am. It is however special when I am used in the same sentence as Christ and yet very eerie. I love my students- they breathe life into me and take away life from me- it is a brutal supernova of euphoric experience. While it is true that I am older than Jesus I still feel young in my heart, young in my marriage, young in my fatherhood, and young in my ministry (at least today I do). God certainly has a sense of humor- just the thought of me being called to student ministry is humorous but the list goes on and on. So what if I am older than Jesus- I am just getting started here...
I can't wait to see where and what God will call me to do in the next "Jesus" age of my life. Who knows... I do know this- that it will be the ride of a lifetime. I am so blessed... so incredibly blessed. I pray that everyone might know the blessing of grace.
