EVEN HIS BROTHERS

John 7:5 (NKJV) 5 For even His brothers did not believe in Him.
    The world has an amazing influence on our thinking, the Lord Jesus is ridiculed and rejected by his siblings, not unusual you may be thinking, however, His desire to know His Father above all else must have been obvious. When missing from His family for two days, He was found by them in the Temple, talking about the Word and having meaningful conversations with knowledgeable teachers. Jealousy, may have been the issue but it seems underlying even that, is our ability to be persuaded by the attitudes and things of this life.
    Friend you may be struggling with pressure from others, it may be the environment or the world view, you should know this, God loves You so much He sent His Son to pay for sin when we could not pay the price ourselves. He died even for the family that rejected Him, He laid down His life willingly, that all our guilty past might be washed away. There is no other Name under heaven, that saves, cleanses, and gives us Eternal life. Believe, your eternity depends on it! Romans 10:9
Heavenly Father, help us to bless You in every way we walk, help us Lord to please You in everything we do, may all our efforts be with You in view. Amen
