I have been tagged by Lyn, Sonja, A Former Leader AND Mary to answer John Smulo's meme "5 Things I Dig about Jesus."
In no particular order...
1. I dig how Jesus broke the rules which defeated His purposes. This saved us from works for the sake of works.
2. I dig how He taught that following God is more about the heart condition than about outward actions. This prevents us from being allowed to judge each other.
3. I dig how He left us the Spirit. It is with the Spirit we are able to find God's leading in the world.
4. I dig how he loved to love the unlovable. I long to follow this example, but I don't as much as I should.
5. I dig that He knows what it's like to be human. It is in this knowledge that we can be certain His grace will cover our human failings.

I'm going to cheat and add one more:

Jesus didn't follow human-made rules, so glad to see you're following in his steps with the extra tag :-)

You're quite the popular gal! I like your list and am learning to appreciate #2 more and more.
Donna and Barbara - I'm waiting (Erin taps her foot...)
Mary - Actually I don't get tagged very often, but when it rains, it pours for some reason.
Thanks for tagging me. I have written my 5 here.
Ha!! I can see you tapping away!!! I think I will be home tomorrow...I really do "dig" Jesus :)(ok, so technically I'm home now...but only for a moment!!!) Are you enjoying this sunshine as much as I am???
I'll get to this tonight I think. Thanks for tagging me.
Donna - We're actually at the coast, so in answer to your question about the sun, no.
Gary - If you have the time. But don't stress over it.
Wow, I didn't realize it was cloudy at the coast this week!! Sorry!! It's going to be cloudy here today to..I'm about to go hike in the gorge so it shouldn't matter.
Keep tapping!!
I don't see links on your blogspot for Faith In A Dress, or Porpoise Diving Life - or am I just missing it?
I finally responded after a few weeks off...check it out. Hope all is well - your new look is cool.
Thanks Trace - I left you a comment.
