Jesus defies your expectations

Morning: Psalms 101, 109; Hosea 4:11-19; Acts 21:15-26

Evening: Psalm 119:121-144; Luke 5:27-39

Jesus defies your expectations ... like the mistaken idea that he only associates with ‘good people’. For him, all are good. Yet, none are perfectly good; all need refinement. Jesus is ever new, always bursting containers where you try to confine him. The way you think about Jesus is probably too narrow. He will usually defy your expectations and give you a more complete perspective, if you are ready for it. Like a moving target, when you think you have him in your sights, Jesus moves on unexpectedly to touch the life of another imperfect person, someone like you.
