If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why?

If I could choose anyone to walk in the shoes of for just one day, it would be Jesus.

Not to elevate myself. But to understand Him, the world, the people in it and myself.

How incredible would it be to see the world through eyes that are all-knowing? To fully grasp the different mindsets of people walking this earth, their fears, their motives, their wounds, their pride, their love. To be completely aware of what’s expected of us and to see, up close, the beauty of living life His way.

I would want to see the magnitude of the mess our nation is facing and whether redemption or ruin is ahead. I would want to understand the intricacies of our Lord and Savior, how He remains compassionate despite our sins and our constant resistance to His will.

I’d want to understand how we are wired mentally and emotionally. What limits us? Why don’t we use the full capacity of our minds? What holds humanity back from becoming what we were created to be?

If only for a day, I would want to see what He sees, to know what He knows, not for power, but for perspective.

Because maybe if we truly saw what He sees, we would live differently. Just my thought. Share yours.
