October 3, 2010: Caring For Your Own Soul – Michael Hidalgo

There is a temptation to be all things to all people. But ultimately our biggest concern must be our own spiritual and emotional health. This means sometimes saying “no.” This means going places where people cannot find you.

Jesus wakes up before his disciples, apparently does not tell them where he is going, and spends time in solitude. His disciples want him to do what the masses are demanding, yet Jesus seems to remain calm and not too wrapped up in people’s opinions. Which leads us to a question, “How many people did Jesus disappoint?” For all the people Jesus healed, were there parents who were upset because Jesus didn’t heal their kids?
