Okay, lets face facts: Jesus was extreme... Extremely extreme. He came to earth in an extremely unusual -- and utterly unique -- way. He preformed extreme feats; He made extreme claims (and backed them up). He made extreme demands on His followers, and He made the extreme sacrifice on the cross. And now, Jesus offers extreme love to you. So here's the question: are you willing to make extreme changes in your life for Him?
If you'd prefer to be a "one-day-a-week" Christian who keeps Christ at a "safe" distance, then the idea of an extreme Jesus isn't too pleasant to consider. But, if you're looking for something more than "Sunday-only" Christianity, then the idea of following an extreme Jesus isn't a burden -- it's a blessing.
I hope that these devotions will encourage you to think about your relation with Jesus. I'm actually getting these from a devotional book for girls but I'm making them for both girls and guys. There's about 31 short devotions that I am going to post here in my journal. Maybe you can do your own devotions each morning if you are not now. I'm sure it will change the direction and the quality of your life. Are you willing to form an extreme relationship with Jesus? And do you desire the eternal abundance and peace that can be yours through Him? If so, ask for God's help... Starting with a regular, morning devotional. And do yourself a favor: take time today (and every day hereafter) to express your extreme gratitude to God's only begotten Son.
