Like You

I was tempted in points like you, yet I did not sin.

Man tends to idolize which is to create an image that is not real.

In reading My Word, you miss much of the physicality of my nature on earth. I was all God but fully man.

If you glean anything from my daily ministry relationship with the disciples and others I loved like Martha and Mary, it’s that I didn’t exude shining light.

And before my ministry, I worked and even had business contracts with others. People treated me like a man which means they cheated, lied, and otherwise interacted with me like they do with you. Many times, they did not fulfill their word, reneged, or negotiated in bad faith.

Their bad behavior was not the temptation but how I was pressured to respond to it. I felt what you feel when people lie or cheat you, but I did not sin.

Every time the emotions came, I went to Abba. I always was with My Father. I knew I had to stick to Him. It was a matter of life and death. He was where I received my strength to resist temptation.

You must be with Me continuously. No one gets you as I do. I understand your failings because I identify with the pressure of temptation.

I love you, forgive you, married you, wash you, provide for you and uphold you.

I am Your Life. Abide in Me.
