We often profess how Jesus is the head of my life;Or how we take Jesus everywhere we go; and the famous line of I woke up this morning with my mind stayed on Jesus.Yet the truth is there are many who go all day without Jesus.We might be with Him when we attend service on Sunday, yet many times we leave supposing He is in our company and might go all day before we realize we have left Him.
How often have you left Jesus at the temple as you go about your day supposing He is with you?How do you truly wake up with your mind on Jesus ,if you don't go bed with Him on your mind. You can't climb in the bed with the intentions of fornacating and have your mind on Jesus.How can you truly be taking Jesus everywhere you go,when you go out on a night of drunk and disorderly behaivor.How do we make so many ungodly choices and decisions if God is truly the head of our life. Now don't get me wrong,I know we all have moments of weakness and we all have our shortcomings, but when you make plans to do wrong, that is neither a weakness or a shortcoming that is a condition of the heart, that needs to be changed.That is a day spent without the company of Jesus.He said he will never leave us,but as we see in our text we can and often do leave Him.
Here Jesus family was leaving the feast of the passover.now they had traveled a whole day thinking Jesus was with them. But after a days journey they begin to seek Him among their kinsfolk and friends. Let us be sure that we are with Jesus.Let us make Him truly the head of our life,truly wake up with our minds on Him as we go to bed giving Him thanks,and go where He leads us so we are always in His presence, and never go all day without Jesus.
