By Don Ruhl

Who is Jesus? He is the Lord of Heaven and Earth. He created the heavens and the Earth. Men and women follow Him. Yet, a man approached Jesus, because the man’s daughter had just died, but he believed that Jesus could raise the girl from the dead. Then Matthew wrote these words,

So Jesus arose and followed him, and so did His disciples (Matthew 9.19). 

Place yourself there. You know who Jesus is, but you see Him following a man. A man is leading Jesus.

Questions:

  • What do you think about Jesus following a man?
  • What quality does this show of Jesus?
