Jesus

So yesterday my family and I went out to eat at this really good mexican restuarant. That's just what you do in texas lol.

So anyway, we got there and met our server who's name was Jesus. He was hispanic so it was actually pronounced the spanish way that sounds rather like "Hey Zues!" But still, everytime he came around his name-tag was plainly printed as "Jesus." And it got me to thinking. If this guy really was Jesus, would I treat him any differently? I mean, obvisly if it really was Jesus I would be tackling Him and laughing, dancing, and shouting I LOVE YOU and stuffs, but just respectfully, as a waiter, would I be kinder to Jesus, than to Hey-zues? Would I smile more? Would I give Him a super encouraging kind word? Would I try to do anything to brighten His day? Would I tip Him a lot?...well actually I probably wouldn't do that one since Jesus already kind of owns all the money in the world lol... But still! This all got me to thinking about a quote I once heard from Mother Teresa. It goes something like this;

"Be Jesus to everyone you meet. And in everyone you meet, see Jesus."

It's really a good solid truth. We are always to try to follow the ways of Jesus and try to be like Him as much as possible, but we are also to treat others as if they were Jesus. Just like in the scripture about the sheep and the goats where Jesus tells everyone who fed the hungry, helped the poor and the sick and the needy, that all that time they were feeding Him, clothing Him, comforting Him.

Yeah...just something to think about.
