So Did Jesus

 I’m an analyzer.


an over-thinker.


I replay in my head, situations and experiences over and over and over. 


That person hurt me.


That person broke my heart.


That person betrayed me.


That experience made me feel lost.


That trial makes me angry to remember.


That time in my life was the worst.


I wished I would’ve made a different choice.


I would never do that again. Ever.


And it all starts to feel lonely. Nobody gets it.


How do I pray to God about this?


Jesus was perfect. Can he really relate?


Yes, actually.


He lost.


He was angry.


He was betrayed.


He was hurt.


He made difficult decisions.


He questioned where God was.


He felt broken for the world we would come to.


And I’m reminded that I’m not alone. 


I’ve experienced a lot in my life.


so did Jesus.


He too walked a path similar to mine.


Different but similar.


And so I’ll remember forever.


I’ll remember when I over think.


so. did. jesus.
