If Jesus Went "Live" on Facebook

If you've been on Facebook for any length of time, you've seen individuals, news channels, and business pages who go "live" to reach their audience.  My daughter does this several times a week to sell her Farmasi makeup brand in real time.  It's a pretty neat concept, and it has been a super successful way to interact with the audience.  

Technology never ceases to amaze me.  

So, it got me to thinking. . . what would a "Facebook Live" from Jesus Christ look like? 

How cool would it be to see a notification pop-up which says "Jesus Christ is now live in Heaven"?!! 

Clicking over to His post, what would you like to see?  

• A strong warrior, fighting off the demons of hell who seek to destroy all goodness?  

• A gentle shepherd, talking lovingly to a group of children?

  

• A healer, reaching out and touching the hurting to provide instant relief? 

• A tour guide of sorts, showing us around the portals of heaven and giving us a sneak peek into the eternal glory to come? 

• A messenger of the angels, letting us know our loved ones are safe and happy? 

• A one-on-one session where we can share our problems and get instant answers? 

Oh, the possibilities! While it is so fun to imagine, let me encourage you that Jesus is even closer than a Facebook post. Through the Holy Spirit, through the Word, and even in those times when it seems that God is doing nothing--He is still the sovereign Lord of all creation, and He is constantly at work, bringing about the completion of His perfect plan! And one perfect day, we will see Him face to face--no laptops needed! 

For now, I'm off to check my Facebook notifications. . .

"Then Jesus told him, “You believe because you have seen me. But blessed are those who haven’t seen me and believe anyway.” 

John 20:29
