The lives of others

Huge crowds follow Jesus home – but instead of that impressing his relatives it worries them that something is badly wrong with Jesus. Sometimes we too have trouble understanding even those closest to us – their actions can leave us confused and frustrated. On such occasions it helps to stand back and look at things through their eyes – to try and see what they see in order to gain an insight into what is motivating them to act the way they are.
