When the Apostle Paul was knocked off his horse on the road to Damascus, his first reaction to Jesus was, "Who are You, Lord?" I wonder how many of you, lying awake gazing into the darkness, are secretly wondering, "Who are You, Lord?" It's a multi-faceted question with many answers. Several of our nights' devotions address some of the various aspects of Jesus' nature for you to meditate on as you go to sleep.

What aspect of Him would you like to fall in love with as you go to sleep tonight? How about one you may never have thought of before? Did you know that Jesus loved socializing? As far as I can see, He never turned down an invitation. When He first met Matthew (Levi), Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And there were a great number of tax collectors and others who sat down with them (Luke 5:29, NKJV).

Jesus must have loved to attend feasts and gatherings, because He loved people! Do you love people, or have you had problems getting along with them? Do you constantly battle shyness, feelings of inferiority or fear? Realize tonight that Jesus wants to help you become a people lover. He longs for you to enjoy people as much as He does!

Accept this as part of His nature, meditate on it and strive to be like Him in this respect. He'll work supernaturally to remove any roadblocks that are holding you back, and soon you will enjoy sharing the company of others, as He did.

Heavenly Father, mold me into someone who loves people like Jesus did. Where I've had problems with relationships, make me a new creation in You. Restore in me the joy of fellowship, not only with You, but with my brothers and sisters, that I might learn to live in greater harmony and love. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
