A Potrait of Jesus

             Chapter one talked about Jesus growing up. I thought it was weird how his friends were around Him for thrity years and He didn't really show many signs of being very holy and religious. He was more concerned about his father, but he never was afraid to have a good time at party's.

             Chapter six talked about Jesus' relationship inside of us. We all need to have a deep relationship wth God and take time out of our day to talk to him. We never should be afraid of him inside of us. He has a d...
