WWJD?

Today was "try to be like Jesus day." It was a great day, needless to say. Honestly, it was overwhelming to think about what the Savior would do, were he in my shoes. As I walked around campus, passing hundreds of strangers, I was frozen. If Christ were in my shoes, he would know each individual who was passing by. Not only would He know them perfectly, but he would feel all their pain, all their sorrows, all their burdens and trials. Looking at each person, I began to see individuals rather than masses. I can't do exactly as Christ would do, no one can. It is incredible to consider what little sorrow and pain that I have felt in my life, times a billion. It is incomprehensible. It is infinite. As is Christ. He is magnificent, and there is nothing he can't do. 

The other thoughts I had- my tummy hurt. I thought, "what would Jesus do?" I figure that either- A. He would have enough faith to make it better, or B. He would have taken better care of himself in the first place, preventing the problem all together. 

I really really didn't want to go to the gym today, "what would Jesus do?" I think He would go. So I did. 

Tomorrow's challenge: No f-book, or texting. I'm starting out sweet and simple- a good place to start if you ask me.
