Portfolio 1: Who is Jesus, Really?

I think that Jesus taught us that we need to take time to be spiritual and not worry so much about our physical needs like what we are going to wear the next day. Our lives are so busy, but if we take the time to talk or get to know God all of things we need to get done will get done. If we put spiritualness over all the other little things then eventhing will be fine and fall in place because God knows and understands our needs. Jesus wants us to have a relationship with God and to live our lives based on God's views wilfuly. To have a relationship with God we need to get to know him just like we would with other human's. We could read the scriptures to get to know him and live them out. We could never repay God for all the things he was given us so Jesus tells us to always seek forgivness and forgive. Jesus also teaches to love your enemies and the pray for them. Do not seek revenge because revenge takes us no where. I consider myself a follower of these teachings although I need to work on applying them to my life. I practice being spiritual and I also try to have a relasionship with God by praying and go to church to enrich my life of this teachings. I believe that revenge gets us no where. Often times revenge makes you feel bad and could get you into troble. Do the right thing and pray for that person and treat them with agape.
