What would Jesus do?

Sometimes, I get to thinking about where Jesus would be if he lived in the world today. And in the last few months, I've decided that Jesus would definitely be a waitress!

Jesus lived off of the land-- gleaning from people's leftovers. Waitresses live off of people's leftover dollars and sometimes their pennies.

For all the public events recorded, Jesus spent most of his time being invisible. In many of the accounts, Jesus runs away from crowds, or quietly heals someone and then heads off on his way. He never seems to say, "Hey! Over here! Listen to me! I'm important!" On the contrary-- he just starts talking, and then people listen in-- and more and more until there's a big crowd. Then at the END, he says, "He who has ears, let him hear."

Waitresses are all about being invisible. People look at you funny if you act like a real person. You're supposed to be smooth-- never drop anything, never check on people too often. You are just the noone who serves the food and refills the waters. It's amazing how often people keep talking about deeply personal details when you're standing right there taking their plate.
