one and one meal with Jesus
supper is a better time for me to have a meal with Jesus, well first i ask him if he is looking at what people is getting on with, they behave like if you are not even exsisting in the world, you don`t see how the women walk the road with just a little peace of clothes on them, so what are they really saying to the younger girls comming up. I am glad that you show my grand mother the right way be bring me up so i don`t have to be like other women thank you for teaching to teach me how to pray and seek you, i will be happy if my children would follow you just as i am so thank you for having supper with me and hope you come again soon.

How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him? a New commandment?
In a nutshell , I think it is total surrender irrespective of what the situations in your life are. Many a times we accept everything wholeheartedly when the going is good n when it gets rough , we question. Try to fix it ourselves even though we know its not in our hands and we ve given it to our Lord but still try to pull the strings and when the response we get is not as per what we wanted to hear , its a total let down for most of us. If our walk wiz Jesus is with the trust that he is beside you always n will carry you if need be to see you through as it says in the Footprints in the sand we have a total and complete relationship of Love , obedience and trust like a little child and his/her Father.

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?
It is a very nice one to think about. Actually brings a smile on to my face but cant find an answer. I think I will be so overwhelmed wiz excitement, joy, a bit scared cos I know of my failings and know that Jesus knows it too.I would be in tears definitely and speechless and can picture me on my knees toouching his robe. There was no discussion but just his forgiveness , mercy and a comforing look from Jesus.

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?
I would discuss to Him about how can you show you love to Him in every day activities. There are many situations when I feel I love Him but I don`t know how to materialize my love, I don`t know how to show my love for Him in everything I do and everything I feel. I will like to listen to Him talking about that for hours and giving me examples... like he did when he was physically among us.

How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him? a New commandment?
He considered the two as inseparable. However, one can only be intimate to Jesus if he/she invites Him in his/her life. And anyone who invites Jesus into his/her heart will not be disappointed because Jesus will surely come to this person. But how can one show his/her love to Jesus? It is by following His commandments... Personally, I think this is aNew commandment because in the time of Moses, only the Israelites can be intimate with Yahweh...On the contrary, Jesus revealed to us through the New Testament that anyone: Jews or Gentiles are welcome to receive God.

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?
Though I want to ask a lot of questions like the details of creation, heaven, earth, underworld and the new heaven and earth; i will just probably be too be overwhelmed to talk. I guess i would just stare at Him, digesting every detail of His image, capturing a picture of Him on my mind so I would remember it forever...and I would surely invite Him to another meal after.

To be intimate with Jesus means to obey his commandments. By keeping his commandments hw will know that we love him and he will love us too and he will disclose himself to us. Then we will be so close to him

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus,what would you discuss?
Hmmm...I would be scrutinizing him admiring his good looks. Then I would tell him exactly what`s in my heart''even though he knows my hearts content''. I would ask him What`s my destiny?`. Whats my purpose of being on earth?.Tell him that i am so confused about my existence at times. Then I would thank him for dying for us. And finally i would say Hope to have more meals with you Jesus. I love you and take care.

He wants us to trust him, to believe in him and rely on him for everything and if we follow this new commandment, than we are showing him that we love him above ourselves and others. We have put him first and formost in our lives.

At this point, I don`t know what I would want to talk about. I would be in awe of his presence. I want to become more like Christ so I guess I would talk with him about ways of I could do that.
