What Would Jesus Do?

Pertanyaan yang sangat sulit dijawab.

What would Jesus do if He has to leave His son to work (in another island) for quite a long time? Will He quit His job and get a new one that won't require Him to travel out of town?
Will He leave His son and bear the pain of knowing how much His son needs Him?
Will He negotiate with His boss to lessen the travelling?
But because He is Jesus, I guess He would probably finish His job in 8 hours and doesn't need to stay out of town for days.

But what should I do with this situation? What action should I take so that I please Jesus?
Do I really have to leave my son for days? Do I really have to follow my employer just because I need the salary , but in doing so, sacrificing my family? Do I have to resign and look for another job?

If I resign, I might not get another job that would pay this salary, then I might not be able to buy things for my family, including my son, I might not be able to buy him the nutrition he's getting now, the toys he's playing now, the comfort he's having now, the health maintenance he's enjoying now, the education that's good enough for him.

If I don't resign and keep leaving my son for days, my son would probably feel sad and miserable, I would be sad and miserable, my husband would be sad and miserable, and the three of us might end up stressed and miserable.

What would Jesus advise me to do if I asked Him?

After some tears and thoughts, I'm thinking I'm going to do this job the best I can anyway, not because I'm afraid to lose it, but because I don't want to embarrass Jesus, because my boss is counting on me to do this job and if I let him down then I will embarrass Jesus.

I will pray so that Jesus will comfort my son so that he won't be miserable while I'm not around and so that he doesn't feel abandoned by me because I'm doing this for his sake too...... I will pray that Jesus will keep him accompany so that he won't feel lonely while his mommy is away and his daddy is at campus or busy doing homework.
