I know that it's obvious that Jesus' chief mode of transportation was walking. Jesus walked everywhere. Those walks took Him to markets, houses, synagogues, fishing, and people. Jesus was faithful to care for the people God put in His path. God put a variety of people in His path, fishermen, tax collectors, harlots, lepers, and teachers of the law. When they met them, everything changed for them.
The more I thought about this, the more I am convinced that it is not circumstantial the people we intersect with on a daily basis. Psalms 37:23 Have you ever considered that God has a desire to put people in your path who need the love of Jesus?
In Luke 19:1 it says, "He entered Jericho and was passing through." It is very clear that Jesus did not have an agenda in Jericho but while passing through when He met Zaccheus and he was changed. vs. 9 Then, while Jesus is sitting at a well, a woman comes by and Jesus shares He is the Messiah. John 4 And last, Jesus was teaching the people when the religious brought to Him a woman caught in the act of adultery. John 8:1-11 I am sure that was not in His Daily-Planner but when the woman left she was forgiven!
What if tomorrow you prayed that God would send people across your path that need to know Jesus. And what if you pray that you would be sensitive to the Holy Spirit's prompting that this is the person you prayed God would send your way?
YOU could change someone's eternity!
