DENNIS
Good Morning. I am Dennis Gossett with Central United Methodist Church.
Have you ever met someone who was just plane mean? They are never nice
and they always seem to be hurting people. Have you ever thought about
approaching that person? How about inviting them to church? The answer is
probably no. But that is our human nature isn’t it? We don’t want to get
ourselves hurt much less anyone else.
Did you know that Jesus was not even worried about that kind of thing? In
fact, he took a bunch of his disciples on an all-night trek across a stormy lake
in order to find a person who was the worst of the worst. The one he was
looking for; nobody could restrain. He was so mean that he would break the
chains when somebody tried to tie him up. Everybody was scare of him. But
Jesus wasn’t. It’s not that Jesus was tougher than this guy. He wasn’t scared,
because he saw the man for who he really was.
Jesus has a way of doing that to all of us. He is able to see through the fronts
and into the person we were created to be. Each one of us was created to be
loved by God and to love Him back. Jesus can heal, mend, and cure whatever
is going on in people’s lives. I invite you to Central to worship the one who
will stop at nothing for you.
