GUAVA JELLY JESUS

One of the coolest journeys that I have written about, was of Guava Jelly Jesus! I remember Grandmother Bouterse taking those guava's and boiling them into a pureed consistency. She would then pour them over a cheesecloth, to get rid of any pieces that shouldn't be in there, and then pour it into the jelly jars, and then she'd give them as gifts!. At the same time, she would tell me that this was just like Jesus, as He strained out the impurities from our lives. I thought that was the coolest picture......
He does that too, you know. He placed Himself on the cross of fire for you and me, just so He could strain out the sin from our lives and make us a perfect gift for God!
