Side Thoughts

He showed them his hands and his side. - John 20:20 RSV

Just as there are various sides to each of us, our Lord Jesus displayed different sides while living here on earth.

There was the side of Him that:

Reached out to others (John 4:7)

Gathered with his disciples (John 6:3)

Cried (John 11:35)

Displayed righteous anger (John 2:16)

Craved solitude and prayer (Mark 1:35)

And most important of all -

The Side that took the soldier's spear. (John 19:34)

Thank you, Saviour, for the blood and water that poured out from your side, culminating your earthly work.

Guide us and prevent our getting sidetracked as we follow you.
