Experience

Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. (John 3: 3)

When I am born again, I promise to live as Christ lived.

The way that I live is partly because I’ve been on the other side. If I imagine experiencing what He experienced, being like Him will be more intuitive.

I can imagine myself growing up as a foreigner in Egypt, a refugee.

I can imagine myself mocked and whispered about as an illegitimate child.

I can imagine myself warning friends that foxes have holes, but I have no home.
