What Would Jesus Say?

It seems like everyone makes such a big deal out of what Jesus would do. We thought we would consider what Jesus might say in response to some very common statements that are often uttered in desperation, fear, or depression. Below you will find these often-heard cries, followed by what we think Jesus would say in response.

It's Hopeless
I am hope for the hopeless, put your faith in me. Where your abilities end mine begin, have faith and together we can accomplish anything.

Why Me?
Because I chose you. I would not lead you to do anything you could not do or give you more than you can handle. Sometimes the road may seem rough, but be assured that I am with you.

I don't know what your will is for me, I don't know what you want.
That's okay, I do. Stick with me and in time all will be made clear. Trust me, I have great plans for you even if you do not know them yet.

I'm afraid.
If I am with you what could you possibly have to fear? You can't fear man, because you have God on your side. You can't fear the devil, for I have conquered him. Besides that, I am so much greater than any hold Satan could ever have on you, I am so much more powerful than anything the world has ever known and I am living inside you. Don't be afraid I'm here for you all the time.

I am running out of time.
I am the Father of time. Every hour of every day is set and given by me. Don't worry about how much time you have, for I am in control of time.

I feel so alone.
I'll keep you company, I'll even introduce you to new friends, I'll set you free.

Nothing I've done is working, I'm so frustrated.
I have never let you down before, this is no different. Let me handle it in my own way, on my own time. It will all work out and everything will fall into place better than you can imagine. Don't worry, I'm in control.

I need a friend.
Not only am I your savior, I'm also your friend. Stick with me and I'll take you on the ride of your life. You've never had a friend who cares more about you than I do. My compassion for you was signed in blood 2000 years ago when I died on a cross so that you could have eternal life.

I can't handle this anymore.
I will never give you more than you can handle and I will always provide a way of escape. If you feel you can't handle something, give it to me... I can.

I feel like I am getting farther away from you each day.
That's only natural. You will find your way back and I will help you. Just remember that while you may feel far from me, I am never far from you.

I don't know who to trust.
First, trust in me, totally and completely. Once you have done that I will lead you to someone you can trust.

All I need is some peace and quiet!
I am the peace you seek. Come to me and I will forever comfort you. I can give you shelter for the storms of your life.

I'm being tempted.
No temptation has seized you except that which is common to man. You can stand up to it, I was tempted and I know how you feel. Because of that I can lead you out of temptation as long as you call on my name.

I feel worthless.
You are worth more than anything to me. You are my most precious creation. You are worth so much that I went through a life of pain and suffering, and was killed for you. You will always be special to me, even if the world hates you.

No one understands me.
I do. I understand you better than you do. I know what you need better than anybody else including you.

I don't know enough about you.
Trust me and all will be revealed to you.

I'm worried.
Don't be. I take care of birds and flowers and they can't even compare to you in worth. Think of how much more I will take care of you. Don't let anything bother you because in the end, it will work toward my ultimate plan for your life.
