As God’s children, we long to know that divine love in our lives. We might wonder if we’re doing what God wants us to do, going where God wants us to go. We don’t have face to face contact. Jesus promises to send the advocate, the paraclete, the helper that will be with the disciples after Jesus ascends to heaven. He promises them power to do even greater works than his own. And they do! So we should expect the same!

Can you imagine living with Jesus? That’s an odd couple. I think we’d be strange roommates. Would I be more like Felix, trying too hard, obsessing over keeping the kitchen sink clean? Trying to get the organic, non-GMO food, always recycling, going overboard to try to seem well-read and in control? Or would Jesus clearly see that I’m more like Oscar, just living for pleasure, making messes, and slowly spiraling down in most aspects of my life? When you live with someone, they get to know you about as intimately as another person can. How can we live with Jesus?
