What are my thoughts about Jesus? How do I know Him? What have I heard about Him? What do I believe about Him?
By: J Wilson

What are my thoughts about Jesus? I think that Jesus was a person that everyone wanted to be with and have a conversation with. His caring and loyal personality made people feel loved and safe. After His death, many seemed lost and abandoned. His life was based on helping, caring, and supporting others in need. Not only did He help people that were in need of food and clothing, but He also helped them spiritually by preaching the word of God. Here is a clip on the biggest question, "Who is Jesus?" 

My elementary/junior high experience was includes attending mass on  a weekly bases with my fellow classmates. Since Prekindergarten, I was taught about Jesus' life in religion class. All the religion courses I took also prepared me for my First Communion and Confirmation. Taking religion classes, can teach people that are of different religions about having faith and hope when needed. At a young age, my class was taught the basics of Catholicism, but as the years progress we learned a more deeper understanding of the purpose of Jesus's arrival on Earth. 

I have heard stories and information about Jesus from all the religion class that I have taken throughout my life and from the masses I have attended. My Catholic elementary/junior high  school always taught about our religion every day in religion class. We would read our religion books and discuss the importance of Jesus. I learned that Jesus was a man that God sent to Earth to preach the Word of God. He performed miracles before and after his death. Many were inspired to live a better life because He gave them hope and faith. I also learned that He had many titles and roles to play. He was a teacher, king, son of God and was a great example of how we should live our lives. I also learned that not everyone saw that Jesus was sent from God. He was crucified and died because of those who did not believe. Other leaders were not pleased to see another man "ruling" the Earth. Jesus did not see himself ruling the Earth, but saving us from sin and giving us faith and hope. 

I believe that Jesus was not only a person that sacrificed his life for us, but He was also a person that listened to other's needs and was willingly to help others. He was never forced to put others before himself. I believe in all the miracles and the purpose of his arrival on Earth. He was sent from God to save us and lead us to live a life filled with the greatness of God.
