Jesus will always step into the mess—and has with the scars to prove it
Life is messy, and often we have the scars to prove it. Sin scars our bitter regrets. Thirst scars our parched tongues. Work scars our incomplete tasks. Blindness scars our errant wanderings. Death scars the end of our lives. Opposition scars our shaky confidence. And so on. Wherever we look, the messes are everywhere. Jesus doesn’t help us out of life’s messes by offering advice or even lending a helping hand. His footprints prove he’s walked through the worst of life’s messes for us. Those same footprints have paved our path out of life’s messes.
