Hebrews 1 was asking me to focus on Jesus, and I wasn’t sure I was ready for all that came with it. As a Shalom Sista, it’s easy for me to say, “It’s all about Jesus,” but what does that mean, exactly? It’s easy to be intimidated when you look at the bigness of our Savior: Jesus with his extravagant love, his reckless pursuit for justice, his staggering intelligence, his foolish bravery, his wisdom that confounds us all. In fact, God’s extraordinary act of love—a deity taking on ordinary humanity for us—could be just as intimidating a picture of God as an exacting and angry tyrant.
