| Jesus' Family |

 Who is your real family? Is it your biological kinfolk, adoptive relatives or is there a more permanent family into which we have been invited? Jesus was once told that his physical mother and brothers were outside and wanted to speak to him. His answer was seemingly strange and puzzling.
Jesus said that those who do the will of God in heaven were his family. The kingdom of heaven takes priority even over physical family. Men and women who obey our Father in heaven can count themselves as the brothers and sisters and even mother of Jesus Christ. He said so. 12:46 While he was still speaking to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, asking to speak to him. 12:47 12:48 But he replied to the man who told him, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?" 12:49 And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers! 12:50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother, and sister, and mother."

Plumbline, I don't understand. Medical questionnaires are about our physical conditions, or do mean that you no longer have certain conditions as a result of repentance? Blessings!
