Choice of Friends

Here is a thought provoking post from blog in my own eye

People Jesus associated with

• soldiers of an occupying army
• poor people
• fishermen
• women with questionable reputations
• a political radical
• a collaborator with an oppressive regime
• a crazy person
• the homeless
• sick people
• blind people
• crippled people
• hungry people
• a woman who would give her last two cents to God
• outcasts of society
• a weird naturalist preacher
• dying people
• a traitor
• a thief
• doubters

People I associate with

• patriotic people
• rich people
• society people
• ministers
• people who, like me, struggle with their generosity
• healthy people
• believers

Do you see a disconnect in my discipleship?
