I think Jesus managed to see the crazy in the people He met and worked with. Peter had these erratic attempts to please. James and John had some humility issues. Thomas, doubt. John the Baptist - well, he was just JTB. Jesus saw it in a woman who had five husbands - another caught in adultery - a man possessed with a legion of demons.
Not only was He not put off by those things, He was moved by them - drawn to them - straight into people's hearts.
We should all recognize that we have hidden parts that might occasionally drive us - for ill or for good. Jesus looked for where the hurt was and touched it. He knew there was a little bit of crazy in all of us.
And be blessed.

Most of the people I love most are the ones who are not afraid to be vulnerable...to let you see what's below the surface. The people that let you know that you are not alone.
I respect your intellect, but I like your transparency more.
Lol...you already know I am a little crazy...but I have a good heart. I do understand those with wounds and hurts, though. I completely understand. I have them myself.
