Video Text:
Last night I found myself silently cheering at a high-school play as Cinderella’s foot slid ever so gracefully into the glass slipper. Suddenly the crowd – including me – burst into applause as if the outcome was a surprise!

The Bible is filled with “Cinderella stories” such as Moses and David just to name two of the big ones. But my favorite miracle story of all time is the one about Jesus and his younger brother James.

James was kind of like Cinderella’s step-sisters because he didn’t believe in Jesus. After all – can you imagine if your brother – the kid you grew up with – claimed to be the Messiah?

So imagine how James must have felt as he watched the killers from Rome torture, crucify and bury Jesus. Can you feel James pain as he must have wondered… “How could Jesus have possibly thought he was the Messiah?”

But when we flip our Bibles toward the end of the New Testament we come to the book of James. In the very first sentence James introduces himself as, “James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.”

What caused James to go from unbeliever to believer? There’s only one possible explanation…. That James was someone who physically touched and talked with the risen Jesus. Jesus is the ultimate Cinderella story!

James couldn’t help but roar as Jesus’ foot slid ever so gracefully into God’s glass slipper. Jesus is the one. We’ve finally found him. The slipper fits on our Messiah!

Isn’t it amazing when we discover Jesus for the first time, and then get to re-discover him again and again! Yes! The slipper fits on our Messiah! Alleluia! Now our life makes sense! Now I’m forgiven, and I can have true hope!

No wonder we want to share Jesus with those whom we love. Let’s be like James, a servant of God, and share the good news about Jesus today!

I too, cannot help but roar! Let’s all roar together for our King. Share your Cinderella faith story below! Tell others how you discovered Jesus in your life. You can make a difference today!
